Home-built kayak rudder plans

Built my first stitch & glue double last summer and love it except for the manouverability in turning. I've decided against a skeg - just want to go with a flip up rudder. Does anyone have any free plans that could be posted to make one out of aluminum or plastic. I have access to some machining and sheet metal equipment. Sorry if this question has been asked before - it's been a few months since I checked out this great site!
