It is still Sunday so here is what I finished last week. An up sized flaptail, it's big  . . I made the hardware and the flaptails. You can see in second pic. I have 2 flaptails made. On the plug is an up sized Moore's style flap like on my original size Lido copy and beside the plug an original Lido shape but up sized. I"ll probably use both styles. I also threaded the thru wire 0-80 and made nuts just to make Capesams shake his head why I am not using the spoke method. I just like doing things the hard way.
George I got one in your fav. color  and Art's too. |

To practice I recommend cutting some 1 inch dowel stock to practice on! I use Createx and do not thin it at all?
That windex, water mix combo I think you may have confused with the solution many use to clean their air brush.....Simple Green, Windex and water!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
