Nose Sculpting

Building Seamaster Day 18: Float Tops & Nose

On April 19th I completed the ‘wood’ version of the floats (still needs to be fiber glassed, etc.) and worked on the nose of the fuselage.  In order to do the floats I measured out a bunch of light balsa to glue to the top side of the float sides to make up the top of the floats.  These were glued along the top edge as well as the front and back edges of top pieces where it made sense.

I also started sculpting the balsa block which will make the  nose of the aircraft.
