Since the engine was still a tight fit with more parts, I need more space under the cowling .... and finally destroyed the cowling! So a new solution was needed!

holy molly... "a new solution was needed"... looking fantastic... i wish i could have space for this kind of tools 🙂

insane! IMO the new cowling looks much better than the original part

Looks good! If you have the necessary tools at home you can do everything you want!

you also need to know how to use them... and no doubt bughunter does 🙂

I wish I had the tools, I wish I had the skills, I wish I had the talent, etc, etc
Another top job Bughunter.

Nah, too many to mention when I look at the Bughunter's work. Didn't want to highjack his build thread and get banned by Tim

Is there an emoji for just standing there in disbelief with a bit of drool coming out of your mouth?

Thank you mates for your nice words! Martin, sometimes my macros are very detailed, to show how I have done things. May be it fulfills some of your wishes 😉

wow, finish line is very close now.... i agree with Martin of course

Thank you, my friends! But I think it will take time to cross the finishing line, some wooden parts to be done, some details missing, rigging, engine finishing and mounting. I will add some text to the pictures.

Nice picture!
The tail of my Nieuport is finished. As usual some parts are scratched.

Absolutely great. The new prop - were you unhappy with the first attempt (i.e. why redo it)?

Yes, the first one matches teh drawings, but according to the pictures the blades were to small for the 110hp rotary.
