Like DD I must make wooden end caps for the wing....Guillows plastic...again! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 05-Nov-07 22:02 Views : 960 The Spirit has a wing. A few extra stingers and a large stringer just forward of the aileron spaces. I could not get 1/32 bass wide enough to cover in one piece so I had to adjust the stringers to hold a tight seam. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 05-Nov-07 21:59 Views : 796 These a floral arranging pins. They are a bit long but cut easily to fit your building board. You can purchase them at a craft shop. I found them useful in building the Spirit wing. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 04-Nov-07 19:55 Views : 894 The top is almost there. Guillows calls for pieced stringers. Fortunately my "mini lumbar yard" yielded stringers that can span the wing in one piece....but I must mark and cut notches as Guillows forgot! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 04-Nov-07 17:21 Views : 885 Wayne pops a bird to the Guillows Co. The wing spars are not even marked, in fact outside of the shape, nothing was marked the F3s are FUs! I want to build a few more from Guillows but as a last resort! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 04-Nov-07 17:18 Views : 909 Misty enthusiastically observes wing constuction....he will not it Guillows balsa he says it tastes like sh__! Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 04-Nov-07 17:16 Views : 946 Wayne Johns guards the basic wing layout. Guillos wood sucks! I should have bought plans and fully scratch build the Spirit! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 03-Nov-07 19:34 Views : 903 It is hard to turn the prop and take a pix...but you get the idea...bearing success!! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 03-Nov-07 19:32 Views : 800 Prop and spinner free to turn. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 03-Nov-07 19:31 Views : 960 Decide not to buid a wing...a gyro-copter instead! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 03-Nov-07 19:29 Views : 876 Look close on the rear of the shaft. You can see how the bushing locks the shaft. This assembly slides thru the nose plg, engine, and firewall. Adab of CA locks the bushing to the wood , but the shaft turns free. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 03-Nov-07 19:26 Views : 890 One tube over another. The larger tube also furnished a bushing to secure the prop shaft.
