| Thanks... There is history in this chord. My Grand dad had a shoe repair shop. This spool of waxed chord was once used in his shoe sole stiching machine. Now it simulates bungee chord on bi plane LG. |

| Both look fantastic!! That walnut panel just like the real thing. You have become a master at fabricating bungee cords. |

The LG for klaus II complete with bungee suspension. |

I assembled a new LG and fabricated an instrument panel to fill an otherwise empty space. |

| Very nice, John. They look like the real thing! |

| Thanks Moos. The chosen prop is solid oak. Right and middle laminated veneer. I did not make the middle peop thick enough for Klaus II and I did not want to use more of my veneer. The oak prop is a piece of flooring. |

| BINGO O'man. Gotta love a belt sander..like the graining in #1 BTW. |

The oak prop on the left gets the nod. |

| Tnak you. While Klaus II is still in transit the supplies to build it right started to arrived. The carbon rods for the wing arrived today. I used wooden dowels in the wings of Klaus I, I tried to cut corners on the constuction, my first error. |

| Yes, very nice indeed. The transformation from wood to the look of polished metal. It doesn't get any better. |

| That cowl is gorgeous, John. I agree with David, very stunning. |

| Barney, thanks. Usually this would mark the end of the adventure. I await Klaus II and a repeat of the Pfzlz construction, this time, W/O major error....I hope! |

| Beautiful work John!!! |

Tried some of my newly aquired veneer to make another Axial prop (Berlin). Cannot be sure of the length until I get Klaus II build. If I cannot use it it goes into the "Magic Box" for a future build and I shall fabricate another. |

The guns have sights, though hard to see here, and minor details. Highlighted the wheels a bit. |

I learned a great deal making the leftover cowl from Klaus I. If I must make another for Klaus II at least I will know the procedure. It is all balsa hand shaped and painted. |

| All look fantastic! |
