[TheForge] Grasshopper Treadle Hammer Plans Online?

[Bruce]

Some of you may remember my Grasshopper Treadle Hammer.  Back a decade or
more, I sold plans for this hammer via ebay.  I quit doing that because I
couldn't even break even on it.  (It's about 120 pages and I sold it in a
binder.)
I'm thinking of posting it online for viewing and there are a couple
considerations I need mull over before I could do that.

   1. Should I revise the plans first, and, if so, how?  When I designed
   this treadle hammer, I did not myself know how to weld.  Accordingly, some
   of the assembly is by screws and bolts, and some of these might better be
   welded.  In principal, I could modify all relevant drawings to indicate
   welds, but this could take a long time to accomplish as it would be a fair
   investment in time (always short).  Alternatively, I could annotate where
   welding be recommended in lieu of the indicated fasteners, either on the
   drawings themselves, or on a separate sheet listing such changes, the
   latter being the least work & time required.
   2. Where could I post it?  Perhaps on my Grasshopper webpage -- if it
   can accept this quantity of drawings.  Perhaps in Google Docs, in which
   case I'd want some way of limiting access to read-only. (I think that can
   be done, but haven't used Gdocs enough to know.)

What do you think?
