That is impressive Ray. I have so much to learn.

I couldn't wait to see if it fit: it does! Now to draw the RH well, install some hardwood for the L/G attachment poinits and start planking the main float.

Holy Crap !!! Success on the first draw. I probably used up all my luck the first week of the New Year.

...and then I had to make a right-hand (and left-hand) master of the wheel well. These are going to be some complicated deep draws for the vac-form. Plan on using .030 styrene.

I have a plan that first required me to make a vac0form box about 7 inches square.

The reason that I haven't been posting posting any build pictures, other that Life getting in the way, is that I have been trying to decide how to duplicate the wheel wells on the Leoning.

Great picture, Ray. Looks like the MN/IA border country back when. Looked up the artist. Really interesting. Finally snowed here.

Excellent James. Thank You!

Hi Ray. I've added 'McDonnell Douglas Delta II Rocket' to the scratch built section. Hope that's good.

The Loening is still on the front burner, hopefully followed by the J2F Duck during teh winter building season. This is just something "Different" that has been floating around in my head for a while.

I guess you are serious. The plane was a challenge. A worthy project for your talents. You spent so much time on the wheels. They came out so beauteous.. Spending time on a tube with stabilizers is such a letdown, lathe or not😟

Hey y'all, I'm back. Short tale of woe: I cut out all of teh ribs and wing parts for the Loening last week, the found that I had used the 1/16 scale set of plans instead of the 1/12 scale. Disgusted is putting it mildly. While recovering from that Faux Pau, I decided to utilize my new minuature Lathe to whip ot a Boeing Delta II Launch Vehicle that carried teh Mars Rover "Spirit" to the Red Planet. So with James (and the general populace's approval) I will turn my corner of the site into the "Virtual Aero(space) Drome" for a while. [James if you could add "Delta II No. 298" to the scratchbuilt cagegory?
