Bi Plane

[RayTrek]

Have been very busy but I took a couple days off, warmed up the shop and craved this project that I have been working on, it is all wood and except for the dowels all carved on the CC. Both carves are two side, a 9” fuselage and 8” wing span wood is poplar and finished in minwax antique maple gel stain the wing mounting dowels on the belle are left long for removing the wings.
I like to thank Kenm810 for the prop lay out idea, very cool

Hope you enjoy my first attempt at this kind of project.
Later – Ray – Ver. 1.132 and haveing way to much fun.

12 of my patterns are listed at the pattern store for those ho have asked

Ray - that turned out nice. I had one in mind that when it warms up enough i am going to try to carve.

Ray, that is outstanding! What a fun project to enjoy - thanks for posting the pics. Kudos to you for your creative imagination and great sense of design! I just love your projects - can't wait to see what you come up with next.

That is cool, that is the basis behind the whole contest to share ideas and projects! I know Ray you sell your projects as you should, but with brilliant members like you throwing a bone or two really feels good and sharing does the soul good too!

Ray Trek: I like the 4 th picture it looks like its ready to take off especially with the sky background nice work!!!:-D

[RayTrek]

The first pleasure is to have the design start to look like something, then it is the carving completed, and on to assembly and finish. Next it is to show it to my peers and hope that I can give something to the community “Family” as they have given so much to me in ideas, pixs, patterns, procedure, comments and praise. You are the Best, if you are reading this then I am thanking you. I have enjoyed all of your projects and have learned much from all of you.
Cheers to you
