Does anyone have plans for floats that are of all wood construction. I would like to set up my kadet mark II with a single float down the center, and two wing tip floats. Information on both these would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a 40 size float drawing in DXF format.

If you have Autocad or a similar software you can scale it like you want.

thanks for the link, but i want floats that have a more scale appearance, plus wood is a whole lot easier for me to work with.
