So... Are plans available anywhere?

Umm. . . it probably wouldn't be cost effective for you: the NRC is pretty brutal in it's regulations. I'm very gun-ho on nuclear power, but that is one bureaucracy I don't mind charging ~$4-500/hr for people to review submitted designs for approval and then painfully inspecting operating plants.

I would still like to look at the plans (though it's charming you thought I might try to build it...)
