Assuming someone had the plans to sell used. What do you think they would be willing to sell them for? Maybe half price? Or even say something like $100?

I would think the guy who drew up the plans put a bunch of effort into this. Why not consider just paying full price to the author? If you are going to be building a Cobra from scratch, I suspect there will be quite a few expenses buying all kinds of tools. How much might a scratch builder pay for something an English wheel? I don't know. How about this: https://metalace.com/english-wheels/classic-wheels/ Hmm, if a scratch builder might pay thousands of dollars for a nice English wheel, why not consider buying the plans directly from the author? If you buy a copy directly from the author, maybe the author would be willing to answer some questions about the plans, etc.
