I can't belive that I found a picture of the original Alaskan Survey emblem! Now I have to figure out how to manipulate it in "Paint" to make the background white.

I tend to get into a OCD mode when reasearching a plane. It always seems that you find the perfect detail shot AFTER you need it. Last Sunday I finally happened to find a good picture of the float that showed that I had the wheel wells in the wrong shape. A little styrene and body putty filled in the erroneous shape so now I can move on.

Finished adding some details to the hull. Movie line from someone comes to mind: "A man's got ta know his limitations". Laid on the first coat of Liquatex primer. I am impressed with the way that the Liquatex goes on and covers; Thanks for the recommendation DD.

Spent the last two days in my "machine shop" fabricating the L/G out of K&S brass tubing and strap. Getting there.

Oh Yea, I made whole new set of tail-feathers cuz I didn't like the first set. I suppose now it's time to work on the landing gear (sigh).

About a week later, I now have a new float that is straight. Been adding details out of styrene to the float and carved a motor mount ring out of basswood.

I started to mate teh fuse to the float hull and realized that the float had a distinct curve in the keel (Bannana Boat?). So, I started all over again, including making new & better masters for the wheel wells.
