The bevels are switched on alternating strips. I made some planks that were over 20 inches long for the P-47.

Here is the angle achieved for the planking. BTW, depending on how big of radius the former has, you can strip the balsa up to 3/8" wide. The piece shown is about 3/16" wide.

Gives you a cutting angle like such.

Anyway: Hot-glues a piece of 1/8" X 1/4" to the base of the balsa stripper.

Business end. Tried to get the shape of the cowl right. Suprisingly, I could find very few pics looking directly into the cowl that would help with the shaping of the cowl. Motor mount out of 1/8" lite-ply.

P-47: First coat of spackling has been smoothed off. Need to cut the holes for vents and wings. THis will be a flier (I hope). THe cowling is held on with magnets as is the access hatch.

and: Another 42 inch foamie on skis. We've got lots of snow but below Zero temps so I haven't flown this one yet.

DD: Although this is B&W, you can see how scruffy the O.D. got with a little exposure.
