Same place the Mini max plans came from, Glen-L. They have a set of plans for a 3 point hydro (Tiny Titan) which I built when I was 13 years old. They also have a pickle fork now. It looks like they just modified the bow on the Titan and stretched it a bit.

The plans are 54.00 so they're not free but if you use a Ice Pick to punch holes in the patterns and then connect the dots, you can use the patterns over and over again. My Dad taught me that trick and I was able to sell the plans after I was done and get some of my money back.
