Dan,
Your build has become one of those that I just don't know how to continue to comment. Your work is just INDESCRIBABLE!

Thank you very much to all!
An amazing rule: no work, no progress...
I confirm that!
We are here in summertime in october. Hard inside workshop...

However, one side of the shutters is completed;





Not really perfect, but behind the propeller... PROPELLER's joke...
These blades, an hell!

Soldering is a good way to forget that:







Cheers, Dan.

Just simply amazing, the work on the radiator shutters is incredible and the entire engine is so realistic, a true artist at work here.

Hello to all,
Just unhuman skill... ;)
Un travail plus qu'époustouflant. Une pièce d'orfèvrerie, j'admire sans retenue. J'espère le voir un jour en vrai lors d'une expo.
Best regards.
Alain.
Use the force, Luke.

The only expression coming to my mind is "this looks like a real airplane". But this sounds too trivial...

Hi gentlemen!

Your comments are incredible... Thank you very much, I'm very proud
of that. You are too kind, really!

Well, who said LEWIS gun?
First steps:
 




How to? As usual, lathe, mill...





And, a really boring game, the fuselage rigging is not completed...



Have a nice week, thanks again, Dan.

Dan, Your work is absolutely beautiful. If this has been asked and answered before then I apologize but what are you using as a reference for this? It is almost as though you have a full sized plane in your shed!
