| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:27 |  | | Views : 647 | | I spent a few days over Christmas modeling a Pilot and Observer in ZBrush and printing them out. Here is the pilot ready for painting. |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:25 |  | | Views : 686 | | I also modeled and printed the cockpit combing and cover. |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:24 |  | | Views : 646 | | Intake and exhaust side. The exhaust pipes are not installed. I’ll do that after I paint the cowling since they would be in the way otherwise. |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:23 |  | | Views : 739 | | Engine painted, push rods added and radiator header tank installed. |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:22 |  | | Views : 632 | | The other side. |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:22 |  | | Views : 736 | | Here is a close up of the engine that I printed on my 3D printer. You can see the overall length is 2 inches. |

| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:20 |  | | Views : 663 | | The plans didn’t really cover how to mount the wings, so I opted for brass tubing inserted into the wings, with slightly larger brass tubing in the fuse. I’m not worried about weight, and wanted to make sure the wings will not buckle. No problem with this solution! |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:18 |  | | Views : 693 | | Here are the wing tips with 1/16” bamboo skewers that are used for the rigging. This plane has a lot of rigging. Looking forward to that! |
| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 13-Jan-20 11:17 |  | | Views : 629 | | Been spending time working on the Taube. I’ve covered all the surfaces and doped them with EZDope. 1:3 thinned with water worked really well. Took about five coats but finally got tissue fully saturated without big globs of dope to clean up. |
