RE: A really small float plane build thread
I did find a little time to shape the tip floats and work on the front main attach point.
The 12" disk sander I bought last year came in real hand on this project,, I couldn't imagine shaping these all by hand
The zero uses a bamboo dowel that acts as a spar so the wing is slotted for it, I made a lite-ply piece that will fit in the slot and cross join the main float brace. I then made a couple straps out of left over control horn backing pieces, used the nyrod in the foam method again,, the epoxy is gluing as I type.
Tomorrow I'll work on the rear braces and do some finial shaping of the main float and front brace
