Default Printing Plans

I have been out of RC for 20 years and have just begun finishing a sport flyer. While building, Ihave gotten a digital copy of SeaFury plans that I want to build, I checked at several online printing places and they estimate $25 and up for a single copy plus shipping. The plans are approximately 32" x 60". Anyone have a suggestion for a more reasonable priced print service?

Thanks,
Lee

Is there a Minute Man Press near by?
I have prints done by them and I think it was around $25.00 for four sheets

I guess I was lucky and found a graphics shop local in my area that will print 36" wide plans by however long for around $3 to $4 a sheet. (Black and White copies of course)

Default RE: Printing Plans

Thank you to all for the ideas and offers. The plans in question are for a Hawker Sea Fury and were obtained from http://plans.aerofred.com. After posting my request for printing ideas, I studied the digital copy of the plans and saw the designer's name. It turns out that Gus Morfis has his own web site and sells his plans for very reasonable prices considering the amount of labor he has invested. I have emailed him and hope to purchase them directly since he appears to be the rightful owner. His site is http://www.rccombat.com/sections/man...its_morfis.htm

Thanks again to all,
Lee
