I figured I would post this in case anyone is looking for these. If there are any other free resources please feel free to post them here. I obtained some critical measurements and build techniques from these plans to build my first spider bridge guitar.

Tim, I recently completed two Dobros using Dusina's construction manual as a basis. However I wanted to build large body instruments. Several generous individuals on the Reso forum measured their own L.B instruments and I drafted my own plan. I am extremely happy with the sound of mine.

I could find only two other plan sources on the Internet. One is the Beard plan, which they included in their kit (now discontinued?). The other is a low res drawing on Karel's web site from Czechoslovakia.
