    well, first we don't know where you are...
    if you are in Europe , I suppose i could cut you parts sometimes.

    As far as plans, we need more info: like
    -do you want it scale, or semi scale, even profile ? (at 2m I doubt it)
    -is it for flying or display
    -spacing inside the fuse for electrics/fuel tank/battery, etc...

    so many variables!

    I suppose the best way would be for you to :
    -follow the tutorials, and follow the flow:
    -design your own in Sketchup ...
    -place the part on the template
    - then have it cut by someone with a PhlatPrinter....

    I just don't have the time to do all that. I suppose it could be the same with many people here...

    One thing you could try too is set a bounty with an impartial judge (like the Carews, or a moderator on this forum) to decide if the released product meet the specs, and then he would release the bounty (once again don't want money, I just don't have time to do this one) but it may sway some people who would be hesitating between this and an other project.

    Personally, I have a hundred projects of my own already - many of which will probably never be completed to my satisfaction. Now Taoweiji says (with his second post) he wants something that kinda looks like a something-or-other or maybe like a something-else, and I, for one, don't feel like playing a game of 21 questions to help discern what, exactly, he's asking for. Life is too short already, to volunteer to perform a non-specified task for some un-stated reward at some to-be-defined future date, possibly recognized only in an alternate universe.

    Basically, what it comes down to is that even if you had a PP, you still would have to draw up the plans yourself. Things don't happen without some investment, be it time or money. You can find alot of sketchup tutorials on youtube and other websites. It's really very easy to use.
