Metal scratch workAfter the finished Fokker D.VII I like to start a new project with a riddle.
I guess you will see soon, what it is, but for which aircraft?
At first I started to work a small wooden block, drilled, sawed and cutted.

A 0.8mm brass inside the hole, two "H" made from 0.6mm brass (fixed with 0.4mm brass inside), and a drill shaft holds a 1.0mm brass pipe.

After soldering all parts together removed it carefully.

The first construction is done, a second one is needed.

A 4mm brass strip of a PE fret, in the middle a 0.8mm hole and 4 elongated holes on the corners. Soldered from below.

Another wider strips bend in form and soldered too. The axle is 0.8mm nickel silver.

Tinned and painted with Gunze Mr. Metal Primer.

Painted with a MRP black, a "broken" one, not a deep black.

With scratches on the underside this part is finished.

So, and now your wildest guesses please! One thing I can say: the scale is 1/48.
Cheers,
Frank
