Found one for G6, just raise the 4th string from D to E:

There's this one, which is tabbed 1/2 step higher. Guitar 1 is F A# D# G# C F and second guitar (slide) is G# C D# G# C D#.

You can play it standard tuning with a capo on the first fret, as it is in the tab or edit the tab to lower the whole thing 1/2 step.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

Most folks playing a "dobro" won't want to use standard tuning or any variant thereof.

Why is that? I think this one sounds just fine in that tuning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVmzuzowM1w&feature=related

Standard's laid out for versatility in fretting chords and isn't so handy for barring. Most sliders prefer tuning in open chords. You can of course regard standard as a bastardized combination of parts of different open tunings on various small groupings of strings and make it work well, especially as a solo tuning with someone else playing accompaniment.
