I was planning on building an A for simplicity but after looking at some 2 pointers, I'm leaning in that direction. I did a search but I can't find a thread devoted to these. I'm no good at designing and much prefer to copy something I like.

Dick, if you want plans that are already drawn you can take a look at this set from Don's Plans.

I have a copy of this set of plans in front of me. I purchased them eleven years ago. Maybe some day I will get around to using them.

Some beauties in the classifieds right now!(I want the Campanella, NFI, although I wish I was)
Seriously that Campanella in the classifieds is drool worthy, the coolest looking mandolin I've seen

There's also a Randy Wood 2-point in the classifieds. I'm sure it's awesome.
So are Lyon & Healey the inventors of the two point style? Or is there an earlier version than theirs?
Here's a classic 2 pointer.
I just couldn't resist...
