Very nice propeller Kenji. The good thing about wood modelling is if you make a mistake it is easy to fix.

Thanks, Lou, Gordon

It is difficult to join the lower wing to the fuselage.
Stick a small mechanical pencil lead on the wing, mark the fuselage, and then drill a hole.

The wooden parts are almost finished.

I like your workmanship. Thank you for posting.

I used a method not written in "SCALE MODEL AIR CRAFT".
I made the jig from wood to adjust the upper and lower wings, struts and other parts.
Jigs for the upper and lower wings have not been placed yet.

The base is a wooden box of cookies.

Coming along nicely.

I made a support strut and wheels.
These were small and had a hard time.

[lastvautour]

Very nice Kenji.

Difficult to determine the position of the undercarriages on fuselage.
The left and right positions are out of order!

[lastvautour]

Looks good from this angle.

I enjoy your construction methods Kenji. You have great skill in your modelling.

Thanks, Lou, Fraser, Gordon
Little by little, I'm working on it.

The 1933 text does not mention struts and wheels.
I tentatively soldered a brass pipe to determine the wheel spacing.
I cut a brass pipe and put "Support strut" on it.

Congratulation on a very realistic undercarriage.
