Newly carved wing and basic contour of the fuselage

Good going, Lou. What kind of wood are the tail pieces made of?

lastvautour · January 11, 2026, 07:39:51 PM

Cedar, but I will re-do with pine later.

A few minutes this morning. Still need lots of TLC.

Great progress. I like the nacelle being done in multiple pieces. I might have to try that on a future build.

1/2 hour at the bench.

Will the wings be notched to attach them?

Always!

Progress report. The tail unit is glued together and pinned to the fuselage. Wing is notched, but not glued yet.

That's coming along nicely!

Thank you Jordan. It is a low priority build.
