Thanks Harvey for getting my picture to come up on the post, how is that done?
I can design patterns, but can't figure out computer things >.<

You need a website to host the image, which you obviously have.
Insert into the post
<img src="http://www.accentonengraving.com/accentlogo.jpg" border="0" />
Then click on the selection 'Enabled with auto-linebreaks' just below the reply white box. (That is the code for the image in my signature, alter it for your path.)
It is always safest to preview the post first to be sure it works.

I know I was supposed to be designing a Harley with a side car and suicide shifter, :S but someone mentioned a Helicopter and I have a passion for helicopters.
I made a killer design, I think it is my best work yet. I think you might appreciate this design.
If you go this post, you'll find a picture of the Helicopter:

There's a guy on eBay who's priced pretty good, and it comes nearly "laser" sized already 12 X 24". Here's a link to his eBay store:

If you still need 12" wide ply let me know. I can get it and sell for less then the Ebay guy. I don't stock that much but if you need it can start stocking more. I norrmaly have some sheets from 1/64 th to 3/36 in house and can get more in a few days. I use it for my model railroad kits

You can get those same sized sheets of baltic or finland birch plywood from Sloans Woodshop for less than those ebay prices:

Tom, How about an F18?
I would enjoy that one, since I spent 4 years as a mechanic on them.
Thanks

An F-18 Hornet would be something I could build, Thanks for the idea!
Here are the ideas we are working on, Note: I have teamed up with another person, who can produce good assembly instructions. She will become the lead contact for these future product designs. I would rather pass a kidney stone than make assembly instructions ;-)
TANK - DONE (STILL NEED ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION)
APACHE HELICOPTER - DONE (This came out AWESOME!!!)
TRAIL/RACE BIKE - DONE (STILL NEED ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION)
BLACK SHARK HELICOPTER
HUMMER
JEEP
3 STORY DOLL HOUSE - DONE
VICTORIAN DOLL HOUSE - DONE
OVER 30 PIECES OF DOLL FURNITURE - DONE
STREET MOTORCYCLE
CHOPPER
BIKE WITH SIDE CAR
CONVERTIBLE CAR
BUCKET LOADER
DUMP TRUCK
AIRCRAFT CARRIER (NOTE TO SELF; BUY TWO BOTTLES OF ASPIRIN :-)
SUBMARINE
YACHT
WINDJAMMER SAIL BOAT?
Plus I have received many a good idea, if I can live long enough to design them all. I have someone who will be testing our pattern for a large scale build once I get them the redesign. Can you imagine making a full size tank playhouse for your child or grandchild (every mans dream, every womens nightmare :P )
I am currently in my spare time working on a dog pattern volume 2 >.<
I will be set up at the Baltimore NBM show I hope some of you stop by to say hi.

Tom,
Is this plan available? Racing bike. I have an event I will be going to at the end of this month and they have a motor cross there and I think these will sell.
Thanks bunches,
Debbie

Tom,
Is the plans for this done as well.(OOPS editing my email. I see I forgot to add which project I was looking at. It was the victorian house but I see later you had the gothic house as well. So can either on be done with my laser) Also what size laser bed would I need to cut this out? I am limited with my 12 x 16 bed. If this is larger, like it looks like do you have a smaller version?
Thanks bunches,
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
The assembly instructions are not done yet, but I have someone who has come on board to make good assembly instructions and she is working on it.

Hi Debbie,
All the "Toy Chest" (new name) designs are laid out on a 12" X 24" format. You would have to refigure the nesting to make it smaller.
The house designs are barely under 16" at their longest cut point so I am not sure you will be able to run them at their current size? If your laser will cut out to 16" I think it will be possible?
I must point out, all of our Wall Tribute products will easily run on a 12" X 12" format and we have a dirt bike design under Sports & Hobbies volume 2. You can see it at our web site.

Tom,
Not that I am trying to rush your assembly instruction person lol but do you think it would be done before the end of the month and how much will it cost for the plans for the race bike?
Thanks bunches,
Debbie

Tom,
Well my laser is 16 inches wide. Since this started off with being a second business for me and not sure how it would go, I went with the smallest laser lol gee that was an oversite. Should have bought a bigger one ah one day when this business makes enough money. Still trying to find my exact niche. So if the house plans are at about 16 inches I could rework the plans to fit from a 24 " plan to a 16" plan. Just would have to cut out of 2 different sheets of wood.
I have been to your site but I seem to not be able to find where the plans are located for the houses. Could you send a link to the exact page.
Also I have been to your site and as of right now I can not justify buying one of the $295 sets. Not that this price is out of line ( I do not want to give you that impression) I just can not justify the cost right now. (Not making enough money for something like that yet)
I have looked at the sample set you have and I could reasonably justify that but I need something that had horses on it. I am doing my first fair 4-H Fair and of course the horses would go over great as well as they have a motor cross for dirt bikes and a car derby and a rodeo. But since this would be my first year I am not too sure how selling is going to go. Economy is kind of crudy here. Hey I just thought of a great plan for you lol a pick and choose type set up. For X number of dollars a person could pick and choose x number of layouts they wanted. Ah but this is probably way too much work for you on your end. I will just keep on dreaming lol :-)
Thanks bunches,
Debbie

Funny you should say that, I'm going to upload a work in process. I will delete it and replace it with the finished design when I complete it.
NOTE:
I have deleted the old picture and added the completed Motorcycle with side car picture. I painted the outer tires black before mounting to get the look and check out the detail, like the front foot rests.
