| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 13-May-17 21:02 |  | | Views : 332 | | VOILA !! - FINISHED !! after 5 more hours - Front View, of the 9 1/4" AXIAL Prop for the BMW 160 hp engine, "hand carved" (sanded and filed), and sanded to 320 grit, with 8 laminated layers of 1/16" balsa planks, with "Burnt Sienna" brown gloss and "Bronze" Metallick acrylic paint, painted alternately between the layers. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 12-May-17 20:52 |  | | Views : 270 | | 5 MORE hours of slow, careful, meticulous filing and sanding and examination. The outer blade faces are sanded to an air foil shape form, with sharp leading and trailing edges. The blades have a slight "twist" in them from root to tip. |

| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 11-May-17 15:31 |  | | Views : 309 | | The inner arc of the blade is now blended into the outer blade scallop. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 11-May-17 14:22 |  | | Views : 277 | | A few hours later ... This is really nerve wracking ! - I have been mostly counting the blade scallop sanding strokes with a 1/4" round steel file, with more time stopping and examining and comparing the oposite blades and brushing away sawdust, than actual sanding. Working very slowly, but surely. |
