I made this wooden toy airplane for my grandson. The inspiration for it was a little different--I had a dream that I was building a wooden toy airplane for my grandson. In the dream, it looked more like a Ford Tri-Motor plane. When I woke up, I thought to myself, "I have to build a plane for him." I ended up making it look like a PT-19 Trainer. I had a string-controlled PT-19 with a .049 engine when I was a kid. The plane itself is very simple--there are only 3 pieces of wood. The vinyl Army-Air Corp stickers really finish it off nicely. I will give it to my grandson on his upcoming 2nd Birthday! |
