I don't have much measures in my drawings. I just print these out in 1:1 scale (yes I have plotter in work...) and use those print outs as a model/template for plywood parts. I have only one measure in each drawing so that I could check that it is realy in 1:1 scale after printing. Othere side of body is mirror image so I just nail/stample two plywoods togethere before I cut those to shape so that I get both side once time =>so body should be at least symmetric in that point of view.

Those plywood parts then fit together like lego blocs (or that was my plan but some tunig is needed here...) so I don't have any assembly drawings for these. Distance between parts is 55mm in one direction and an other direction distance I don't need to know beasue there is cut outs in plywood for parts in that direction.

I alredy know many thinks what I should do differently if I start made this again. So if I had some time I should made own set of drawigs for body buck purpose if there is a really need for those. That could take few days but when those days are I don't know or promise anything about that.

I have these drawings (I add few print screen pic as a sample to my callery) in autocad format (and pdf format for printig purpose).

I also use 3D-model where I check some measures (like height of some point from "ground level") etc time to time when I put these plywood parts together.

I also need to say that you could get that bodybuck easier if you just bought one fiber body and fill it some stuf like cement and hammered those aluminium parts against that ;-)

If you anyway (after long excuse text above) belive that you could use these I may sent these to you so PM some e-mail addres to me (and if you have some hopes about format let me know).

And one "disclimer".... Before I sent these to anyway I think that I should made some short instruction how to use these. I should also remove/mark some of these "sections" what I know that are not so accuracy but that may take some time before I have time to do that. So PM me if you think that you may use these and give me few days/week and I made some short instruction and zip these to one package

Looks that I finaly should start my own build thread and wish list about thinks what I need like chassis drawings for begining...

Ps. Sorry about all spelling errors etc. Enghlis just isn't my mother language...

Pss. Time difference cause that I'm always one day late in replies.
