I would be impressed enough if it were made from plastic but for Christ sake WOOD! I could not imagine how I would make that out of wood.

Cuted with scalpel and polished with sanding paper of variose numbers.

There is some truly amazing work on into that: in God's Own Scale it is even more amazing. This is going to be a very different model when it is completed.

Is that a model of a real aeroplane? There were certainly some very odd designs in the early days and you are in the process of capturing the spirit of the thing very well. I truly admire your woodworking skills - this will be a model to look at for real when it is complete. Amazing work - please keep us posted on progress.

A truly amazing looking aeroplane and the work you have put into recreating it is amazing, the wood work is excellent.

I never thought I'd refer to this aircraft as beautiful, but there is no other word to describe your work....very nicely done indeed!

Fantastic work there, old chap. That has got to be the craziest aeroplane design ever! I wonder what the designer was smoking when he drew that?
