Not to come off the wrong way, but is there a reason you are looking for someone else's system instead of designing your own? I can understand the reasoning for wanting to look at other people's designs but asking for CAD files might cause too much temptation to just build what they have. The other thing is that when you just receive CAD files from someone you have no guarantees that the parts are right. There are plenty of times that by the time you are done building your physical parts don't match the CAD.
IMO the best thing to do would be to look at lots of pictures of systems and then start from scratch. It may take longer than just getting some files, but I can guarantee you will get more from the experience.
