About Us
In 2023 Richard Steeves, our newsletter’s founder and editor for 49 years, started looking for someone to carry on his steady hand at the helm. I was fortunate enough to have come to Richard’s attention through my many many questions on the Coot drawings. Enough questions that Richard enlisted Bruce Buksyk and David Rasor to help with them. For the past year we’ve been meeting regularly on Zoom to discuss the CAD solid model, and general Coot topics. We’ve already started the newsletter transition as described in Coot-builders Newsletter, Vol 50, No. 1 (Sept 1, 2024). The editorial board will make every effort for a seamless newsletter translation.
For now, Richard will continue to sell conventional plans and Coot books as listed on the Order Form on the Coot-builder’s Support Page. I will continue to work on the CAD model which is available for Coot builders/restorers/owners who have registered with Richard to access. This CAD model is a detailed translation of the drawings and parts lists and can be used to build a Coot. I’m available for help in using the model. I will also offer pdfs of Molt Taylor’s “Notes to Builders” and past copies of the Coot-builders Newsletters.
