Very Nice,
I had alot of fun with this airplane design from mags on the bicycle wheel to belt driven small dc. The blade on this comes with a story. It was carved by Bill Brown when he was a young man. He was responsible for the retrofit of suspension bridges world-wide to an airfoil shape...spent thousands of hours in wind tunnels. I acquired it from his daughter Betsy Bose in the 90's. It had been sitting in a barn for many years. The shape of the blade is like a pair of Maple Tree keys...it's a real good spinner. My daughter helped do the plane.
Ciao
Tom
