Hi everyone. I have searched every supplier on the web and I couldn't find a Super Jumbo plan to build my first one.
Anyone can help me?
Thank you so much.

If John Kingslight's shape is what you're after, why not email him and ask if he would be willing to send you a profile of it? Most builders will be happy to do this for you.

As for the plans, you can just use the J-200 plans on the Kingslight shape will be fine assuming the profile dimentions are within 1/8" or so... If you need the plans, just make sure the bridge is layed out correctly for the scale you're going with, Then place the X-brace accordingly.
