I made the tyres from cardboard disc 18 of them to each tyre. I soaked the cardboard disc into a soloution of nitraite dope. took the wheels out and let dry over night, chucked them up to my lathe useing the center holes of the tyres I turned them with the cutting tool to bevel out the tyres I added tread to them as well the photo dont justify this but they are there. the landing gear oleo and retracting struts are turned from brass rod. I thank you evewryuone for your reply I an honered. Boats |

My all time favorite was an old Rigid calendar with Ann Margaret at 18 years of age. Used to imagine taking her to my senior prom. Hey, don't laugh, that could have happened...But I remember Mimi. |

If it wasn't for the roof of the carthis could be taking off. This must be about 3 feet in span, those canopies are excellent. Another outstanding build. |
