I find it hard to believe that there are so many surviving SIPPs, but no surviving drawings or plans. I would even be happy to see a set from 7 mountains for their repro SIPP.

Well, in fact, it is likely that the majority of Sipp steam engines left the factory in a fully finished state, intended to be put to work upon arrival. I suppose that later on, as the century progressed and the use of small steam subsided, more of the engines were built as home projects using semi-finished or even raw castings and it is these that should have had plans with them.
Keep searching the internet and the various model engineering and other steam forums, and sooner or later perhaps, a set of those blueprints will show up!?!?
