Kelly,  The drawings I  have were originally made in conjunction with the Tailwind engine mount.  The dynofocal ring however is the same regardless of the aircraft, of course. The drawings are in auto cad and I don't have the program.  I can import them into Vector Works on my Mac  but run into problems of scaling the text. At a printable j-peg size, the text(dimensions)  is too small to read. Maybe Bob has the ability to resolve this issue.  BTW I have an old Lyc case that makes it very easy to build a dynofocal ring but I would not bother as it is a lot of work and  ACS sells them for $136.00.  Jerry
