I have the plans also. I have been gathering parts slowly. While comparing prices it seems his sources are about as low a price as you can get if you buy new. My machine will be a mix of new and used. If you email any questions to Chris you will get a quick response and he seems very happy to help. The plans allow for easy size modification. Measurements dealing with length and width come off the center line of the part. The difficulty I am having is getting the machine work done. I have only taken the parts to a couple of shops but one shop quoted an unbelievable price (+5k labor only

) and the other has not replied with a quote. I have not given up though and I will have a machine.
Good luck and looking forward to the pics. you will provide.
