Redshift Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Hola dudes and dudettes. It's time for another tale from the woodshed, this time it's the iconic Fokker Dr.1 dreidecker. Again, its been left natural wood finish with clear gloss varnish. Everything carved by hand apart from the wheel, which are actually buttons. See you next time 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Work In Progress Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Interesting! Good choice of subject for wood, it very much lends itself to the shapes. What kind of wood are you using? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pheonix Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 That is a little gem. Lime is wonderful wood to work and you have demonstrated well just what can be done with it given some time and patience. The wheels look just right. P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
