    Looking to find a way to get a Garvey Dorey plan of Jeff Spira. I understand he passed away this last spring. Does anyone know how to still get his plans?

    Welcome to the Forum Joe.

    I think that there are many folk who would like to get hold of his plans - it is a shame that his estate is not still selling them. His plan collection was a tremendous resource.
    Have you considered any other Garvey plans, such as these from Sam Devlin?

    Or this one from Glen-L?

    @NERPLANCOLLECTER I am just wondering what are the legal (not to mention moral) implications of you possibly selling multiple copies of Jeff's plans now?
    Are you charging the same fee for a set of plans as what Jeff would have charged?

    Out of all I purchased over the years I built 1. I'm wanting to sale plans that give the right to build 1 which I haven't for the lot I would think that's legal. As far as moral the plans will prolly never be spread to continue if I didn't. I charge 75 per plan.
