It really is a wonder, wonderful!! That is one beautifully made Mossie. It looks as if it were carved from a solid block. Simply outstanding, Poppy. Bravissimo!!!

Hello Poppy, nice. Have you tried "Aircraft" grade birch ply for carving props? 12 layers per 1/4" thickness. makes a nice visual guide to keep em' similar in profile. Carves amazingly well and quickly too (see the me-109 props I did), and those were pretty darned small. Phil.
