This is part 1 in a 3 part series: Different techniques applied in making the woodtoy models

  1. Engine for the 2CV
  2. Making a fender
  1. A curved exhaust

In this series I want to show what different techniques I use to make my models. I appreciate comments, especially if you come up with another proposal to achieve something.

In this first episode you can see how I made the engine (hood) of the 2CV. Enjoy and let me know what you think about it. 

THANKS FOR WATCHING.

Complex, but very methodical!

Love the process (and envy the fresh disc on the sander without any burning!)

Dutchy, that is a home run!   After you and I spoke, I reworked the front of the 2 CV using that technique.  Perfect!  No tear out at all.  Thanks for sharing the "improved" process.  I am sure that will make many craftisians very happy with the outcome.
Regards

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
