    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Made wing supports today. Last big hurdle is getting the upper cabin area built. Which means getting everything squared, leveled with the wings.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Bolts were too big for the routed grove and no other bit for router so I widened the grooves with my mini mill.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I used a router to groove adjustable slots. Center of router was 2" so used a 123 block to center my risers. A little rough around the edges, literally, but did not have a plunge router, nor have I used a router in decades.

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Cut, tapped, bent, sanded and filed a semi scale handle. Not round like the real one but similar. And 30 minutes of work so no big deal. Sorry for the big photos. Still can't figure out how to make them medium size.
