Default RE: B-36 build thread and free plans

Unfortunately I got paged yesterday for my job so I didn't work on the B-36 at all yesterday.

The good news is that I have my CAD laptop next to my work pc so as there were a few minutes here and there through the night I was able to get my CAD software working again! This software has very unusual plotting software and I haven't reconfigured that yet so I can't make my own plots yet.

That is great news for me because I can now get the recent changes to the main gear retracts and wing spars into the CAD design.

Once these changes have been added to the CAD design file I can run with a suggestion that was made a long way back in this thread. I will put all of the part drawings on 2 large sheets so that a single trip to Kinko's will be all you need to plot all of the parts at the same scale. If possible, I will put them all on 1 sheet.

I'm still working so that's it for now.
