| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 29-Apr-17 11:50 |  | | Views : 278 | | When I cut the finished tissue out of the jigs after a few days, it shrunk into a homogenious, rippled, shrivelled, and wrinkled "Orange Peel" texture, from not being stretched taught, as it was stretched perfectly taught while in the jigs. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 29-Apr-17 11:46 |  | | Views : 246 | | RIGHT STAB TISSUE REPAIR - My original intent was to try to match the red and black tissue on the plane, by shrinking and clear coating a red and a black tissue panel in jigs first, then cut it out and just glue it on. |

| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 27-Apr-17 12:20 |  | | Views : 339 | | The laminated prop carving block is all glued up and clamped with two larger outside 1/8" thick clamping protection bare balsa sheet plates. There should be thick grain lines of alternating bronze and burnt sienna colors with enough bare balsa between them to accept red "Cabernet" wood stain after prop carving and sanding - I hope ... |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 27-Apr-17 12:12 |  | | Views : 289 | | The planks are being white glued and stacked - the bronze side face of one plank is glued to the bronze side face of the next plank, and the burnt sienna side face of one plank is glued to the burnt sienna face of the next plank etc etc - the glue should dry invisible. |
