I am Dutch, live in Norway, but read (and speak a bit) Swedish, I am not a cranker yet though. I am trying to buy a hg and made some choices but that seems harder then it seems at a first glance.
Did you get the plans from the the musikmuseet in Stockholm? They are from the sound of it. I have that plan for the Tekero. If it is only the plans that should be translated then I could give it a go. I got a bit lost in the description of the Tekero as there are a lot of woodworkers terms in there and well that is not my trade. The plan itself and the text on it is quite straightforward as it is only naming the parts. You can mail me about it if you like.
