Hey Sparky...How about a plans area?
« on: September 05, 2006, 09:50:22 PM »
Robert.

I have a few hundred plans in digital format (Tiff and PDF) I am willing to upload ALL of these to this site so people can download and print them as see fit.  There must be other people in the same boat as me.........good idea???

You did say you had plenty of server space free.

I will work on a script to upload files to the server. Give me a few days.

     Hey Wynn, Robert, this is a good call.

  Ironically I was just thinking about this yesterday, maybe great minds think alike?  ;D

  I had in mind a sort of plans register, where people could list what plans they have, 
including full size copies,  plans on disk, old magazine features including plans etc.

  Unfortunately my computer skills are fairly limited and have no idea how to set this up, although I imagine it would be fairly simple.

  I'd be happy to exchange plans that I have for ones that I haven't to an extent (wife would kill me if cost got out of hand for full size copies  **)  but I'd be guessing that you've got all the ones I have already.
 
 This could be really cool, cheers, Rob.

the way I see it, it will not only give people the chance to get plans they may need, but will also keep plans stored in a digital format and therefore should be kept forever....I have a list of 244 stunt plans on another post so you guys can see what I have there......

that is ONLY the stunt plans I have manageed to catalog....I have around 3-400 more that I have not done yet.

would be nice to have a source like this, could even be set up to cost per download to help sparky out....even at a couple bucks per plan or some such it would be a good deal.......

This would be a great idea.  I have some plans I could contribute too!
