we have prints that we bought off the internat from a guy that is also into this stuff....he did all required reserch and made condenced set of prints (about 9 pages). The thing is, they want to use cad files to cut the wood stuff on their rouder, waterjet all the brackets (of which there is a lot), and basicly work out all the bugs before they start building it
The plane is SE5a scout, from WW1, seen in this picture below
I'd love to have some help, but this is volonteer work, and on top of that i only have hard copy drawings, which isn't exacly ideal for over internet work.
It isn't as fun as you may think, most of the time is spent
trying to read the drawings, just because the guy who drew the set condenced is so much.....it takes a lot of time....time i could be spending drinking beer and chasing women....
If you are still looking for a project like that go on
http://www.replicraft.us.fm/pricelist.html and for 120 you could get a set you can do your self. Better yat, find a fun plane with no drawings out there...and do some reserch in the archives, and draw one from original production drawings...

The collage is donating the machinery time, and computer/sofware time, and the organization is providing the materials, and the skill (or lack of it, in my case) I told them, my time would be better spent running the CNC
i'll keep this forum updated (and maybe another forum) just to get some feed back from experienced people
Mr Catia; I'll do the modeling as "profesional" as i can.....I'd hate to cause a heart attack to the guy that opens this file 10 years from now, when he wants to build one too.
