I'm most happy to see the crew quarters plans.

Ex Astris has a floorplan of Amanda Roger's quarters from True Q:

Hey these are a treasure trove for fan productions. I've been setting my story on board a nova class vessel similar to the USS Rhode Island. Supposedly the sets of USS Equinox wear a redress of USS Prometheus, but I haven't found any information on either of those sets. I'm currently trying to combine the set schematics for defiant and voyager to come up with my own version. But if anyone finds drawings for the Equinox, please do let me know.
As far as I know those plans aren't in circulation. Which is odd, because the same set was at least used for the USS Excelsior flashback. Right now all I can do for you are Strategic Design's >Nova Class blueprints<...
I'm pretty certain our flickr albums have the Equinox sets, they were on treklandtrunk a few months ago so we should have them.

It was a redress of the Excelsior TUC bridge set from "Flashback". Additionally, the rest of the Equinox sets were redresses of Voyager except for it's engineering section which I don't think the blueprints were released for.

I was lucky to get some more prints of the Equinox and the Prometheus (Not on the Flicker Account), and Yes both of the sets are the same. Quick History on the sets.
The Enterprise-A Set was redressed in Generations as the Enterprise-B. After Filming was done of the Enterprise-B Set, it was redressed again as the Amargosa observatory. (This infomation was in one of the books/magazines. You can see the station dividers in the photo below) The set was trashed after the movie, the turbolift Alcoves and the workstations where saved and reused on the Enterprise-E Bridge (Photo Below).. During Season 3 of Voyager, the Excelsior set was needed for flashback, so a new set was made (Many of the elements like the Dividers...etc where wrong) that set was redressed as the USS Righteous Bridge for the Borg Interactive game. (Graphics and a new Conn Ops) The set was redressed again as the Promethus Bridge in Message in a Bottle, and modifided a little for the Equinox. (New Seating and a lower font section.)
Nope it's from TNG's Stellar Cartography. The Star Trek Action Book has a blueprint of the Dauntless" engineering core (Slipstream core)

OMG! I hope the Equinox drawings will make their way to Flickr soon! I keep checking on rick sternbachs eBay to see if they appear.
Count - well spotted on those diagrams - a very useful set
I've just gone through Ex Astris Scientia and found there are 12 variations of Junior Quarters diagrams. These are now on flickr

Joel - Do you know of any other Star Trek books with set blueprints inside? I know "The Making of Deep Space Nine" and "A vision of the future - Star Trek Voyager" both have blueprints [I bought these two books and uploaded scans back in 2014]
Just a minor thing - the Enterprise C (TNG 3x15) plans show a ceiling octagon feature with "Omit" written on top. In the episode we never see it, so I assumed it wasn't built. (Blueprint: https://www.flickr.com/photos/99878876@N02/23102022962/)
The next episode (TNG 3x16), the Ent C bridge is converted into Data's lab, but has this ceiling octagon.
Screencap from Trekcore
I am wondering whether they left building this ceiling feature until the next episode, or did they have it in the Ent-C after all and we just can't see it in shot.

I don't think it was ever seen in that episode, it's also possible they built it with the Yesterdays Enterprise budget. Also keep in mind that ceiling piece was used in later sets including the science labs that appeared s4 onward that were redressed of troi's office.
Was about to post a screencap but it shows it on Joe's last post.

The making of Star Trek First Contact and Insurrection has two blueprints of the Enterprise-E. You have them on Flicker. Phase II has some, props no major sets. Star Trek Action! Has the most. I Scanned the Dauntless, but in the Insurrection section, it has blueprints of the interior of the shuttle. If you go on ebay, you can find them for a good price. The making of First contact will be the most and the hardest to find. All great books and everyone should have a copy of them.
The Enterprise-C Set History: (First Appearance to The Offspring)
The set started life in the Season 2 Episode 09 Measure Of A Man. Season 2 Ep15 Pen Pal Season 2 Ep17 Samaritan Snare (The Ceiling in this Episode is a round Ceiling) Season 2 Ep20 Emissary (Blueprint Shows the same round ceiling) Season 2 Ep21 Peak Performance
Season 3 Ep06 Booby Trap Season 3 Ep11 The Hunted Season 3 Ep13 DejaQ Season 3 Ep15 (Yesterday's Enterprise)
Between the First Appearance and The Offspring, the ceiling never makes an appearance. So the Offspring seems to be the first appearance.
Books
3 Blueprints (May load SLOW)

RedGeneral - Thank you!
Joel - Thank you for the scans. I've ordered the "Star Trek Action" and look forward to it. I really like a good behind the scenes book. "The making of DS9" is a great book, the "voyager: a vision of the future" book no so much...
Voyager blueprint announcement:
As part of the corridor development, I have redone the standard doors from scratch and figured out the Voyager reinforced doors. Also since the corridor alcove shares a part with the Jefferies Junction room, I've worked on that room as well.

Also 3D models of the Jefferies Junction Room and Voyager Reinforced door have been added to my sketchup warehouse page - https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/by/redgeneral
The turbolift and door 3D files have been updated to the new door blueprints
The corridor plans are still in progress and should hopefully be released soon-ish

Question now, has anyone figured out exactly how they made the pull-cord mechanism for the doors? I remember seeing a clip with Gates McFadden showing Deforest Kelley around the TNG set and they showed a behind the scenes where she pulled one rope to open the doors, and then the other one to close them. I just haven't figured that bit out yet.
It's not remotely complicated. They used standard pocket door mechanisms attached to cables that ran in a loop around various pulleys, to wherever it would be convenient for a stagehand to operate.
