Hi Norite can you please reply to this if you are still around ,in march 2009 you built a Zephyr ,i have one and have been trying to get plans to build another ,i have had no luck anywhere i even tried ripmax they were not very interested or helpful, i wonder Norwood if you still have the plans if so would you consider selling them to me or letting me borrow them ,i would pay any cost that might be involved ,i know its a slim chance you still have them but its worth a punt trying hope you can help ,many thanks ..                                                              ian [the fiddler]
