[TheForge] The Grasshopper Treadle Hammer Plans are now online

[JERRY FROST]

Still no link and the URL only leads to a list of PDFs and join a Google something or other ads. 

The URL is a long robot generated string of characters. Isn't or wasn't there a service for streamlining urls? "Tiny url" or something? I know the latest updates to my computer's operating system have defaulted any file I save to a cloud on Chinese servers and it's all under THEIR system. If I want access to my own saved files I have to pay THEM for access. 

I've taken to saving everything to CD disk and keeping my stuff on a shelf.

Sorry if this is too much of a sidetrack but I have no link or functional URL for the grasshopper plans available here. Accessing your own saved files is pretty automatic whether it works for anyone else or not. Often you're finding the files on your own machine.
