--- Quote from: samshaw946 on February 12, 2008, 04:42:41 am ---I've even toyed with the idea of compiling a 'home cab builder's kit', with all the accessories, finishing parts, tools and tool bits included for those harder-to-source parts. UK DIY stores suck, and quite often people have to go to about ten different sources to get all the bits they need. Things like T-moulding, router bits, specialist paints and certain fixings are not as common in the UK as the US, as is evident from these forums.

I think this idea has a lot of merit.  As far as plans pricing, just put whatever you think they are worth on them.  I've always given my various plans away free to benefit more people but feel free to do whatever you think is best for your situation.

You'll find opposition here because the way most of us feel about arcades is that parts cost, but info is free. Thats the way of a community such as this.
However; if your plans are top notch, come with detailed build pics and instructions, scaled drawings, cut layouts, etc, etc then I wouldn't see a problem selling them. As others have said, Saints book is only like $20 and it is about as detailed as build instructions can get.

$10 is about as much as you get I think.
Turnarcades:
I know the appeal is limited here as most of us have the experience to carry forward our own ideas or borrow from others. I'm not looking to make a killing on them, just a fair amount for the time put into the designs. I'm starting to think that on the basis of Saint's bible, I will do them for £5 a pop, including the Turnarcades setup.
