    He did not use anything like CAD but did it with Compass, Ruler and some tables, if you would meet him I am convinced you would profit from his knowledge and maybe gain a friendship, there is no money involved...

    You apparently are not interested, so, I will offer a tip that might work out for you, go to the "Foundation University" Asian College of Technology and ask if one of their students might want to do the CAD work on the computer...
