My "Stuka"

[Wayne Little]

Charles, great to see you back at it!
That prop work is fantastic, even though it's a lot of work the result will be worth it, well done mate!

 

[Catch22]

Great work!

 

[Matt308]

Nicely done, Mr. C. When I saw your first pic of the blank prop, my first thought was that looks nothing like the paddle bladed prop for the Stuka. Well done!

 

[Heinz]

Great work Charles!

 

[Screaming Eagle]

Charles, I'm with all guys here.Great model and an excellent work on the prop.

 

[A4K]

..Me too! Great job, Charles! That wing section can't have been easy either, not to mention the prop..!

In the last couple of months, very little progress has been made on the Stuka.
Too many other things going on. Promise to get back on it this week-end....

Charles

 

[Heinz]

Look foward to it mate

 

[Wayne Little]

Yes, would like to see you back on track Charles!

Hey Charles! Any progress on the Stuka? It's getting to the real interesting part now.

Hi All:
This past week-end it was clean the garage, so we could get back on the
Stuka. Matt wanted to know where "Mr. C's models were born", so we
got a couple pic's of the model working area. And the top of the Stuka
wing has been covered. It has been sprayed with water and is drying and
shrinking. You can see the bf-109 and the Stuka hanging, waiting to be
completed, and the wing is drying. Last pic shows my stable-mate.

Hi Charles! That new scooter is lookin' good! I've been looking forward to the "back in the saddle" on the stuka.

 

[Wayne Little]

Good stuff charles looking forward to you getting back on track!...

 

[Wurger]

I'm with Wayne.It is a very nice workshop Charles.
I wish I would have the one like that.

 

[Catch22]

Can't wait for more progress!

 

[Heinz]

Great shots Charles, nice scooter!

Hello all:

Just a couple of shots of a dry fit of the wing to the fuselage. Going to work
on the wheel pants tonight. Don't like they way the designer did them [with
balsa and tissue] so I'm going to scratch build them from balsa. Sorry the one
pic is out of focus, will do better next time.

Charles

 

[Catch22]

Really starting to come together!

 

[ccheese]

Hey Catch ! Here's how we scratch build stuka wheel pants. First pic shows
the parts cut out. The center piece is 3/8" sheet balsa. Second pic is the
parts glued together, with a whole lot of sanding to do. Third pic is a dry
fit to the wing. Gonna let it dry overnight.
