Does anyone know where I can get the full size paper plans for the crossbow that was in Mother Earth News back in the 80's ?

It is a community of crossbow builders and enthusiasts world wide. They dont keep plans on the forum, but the members know an awful lot and could probly point you in the right direction, or someone might have a copy they would share. If not there is plenty of designers there to help you step by step in building your own from scratch if you wish, or there are any number of crossbowyers there including Todd the Archer who makes fine handmade bows quite reasonably. Just join the group and get busy.
