just to confirm the UH-1H was almost landed and we were supposed to deplane but mine was less than graceful landing awkwardly when it pitched unexpectedly.
 
The timber

The timber as far as I know is New Guinea Rosewood, it was  purchased from my late friend DeGoose ex Lumberjocks or AKA Lazy larry as he did Laxy Susans too.


he had a fabulous setup in Cabulture, CNC and lasers and made unique cutting Boards however developed a lung issue which lead to his passing.
It certainly smelled like roses as I was working it.
The dust along with just about every other dust generated is reported to produce a rash on sensitive skin, me being exempt!
I hand scraped the five long  pieces to remove glue residue

and prepared the ends

Next was more biscuits and prepared the main boards for their ends


I did the ends and glued them up dodging all the inclement weather.
hence little progress to report

The pressure is on.





I missed the nasty chips, I hope its the B side!

Time for a smoothie


Too big too big she cried !


Better make that three!
