Completed 1/12 scale buck. Last pick is the start of the full size patterns. Small piece of paper is the orignal 1/24 scale drawing.

Scarfed together some 12' white pine to make a longer batten to help fair the lines in better. Much more reliable curve than with the little plastic piece I was using. #lofting #loftinglines #loftingducks #drafting #handmadecar #coachbuilding #sheetmetalfabrication #sheetmetalbuck #woodenbuck #woodworking #plombtools #wiltonvise #millersfalls #woodplane #cardesign https://www.instagram.com/p/B7zIpUFHCdD/?igshid=1v0nsbtn4dxsc

100 years old and the Oliver 17 still slices through wood like butter. Got all of the stations cut out, ready to start final assembly soon. #vintagewoodworking #vintagebandsaw #oliverbandsaw #oliver #oliverwoodworking #vintageequipment #sheetmetalfabrication #sheetmetalshaping #sheetmetalbuck #woodenbuck #metalshapingbuck #customcar #handbuilt #vintagetooljunkie https://www.instagram.com/p/B8rL8vkH76L/?igshid=i1p1xzg8f8kl

Decided to make something while I'm fine tuning my thumbnail dies. Started shaping some 5052 for the nose. I think they're about ready for hardening. #sheetmetalshaping #metalshaping #sheetmetalfabrication #sheetmetalbuck #woodenbuck #quickworkpowerhammer #powerhammer #thumbnaildies #handmadecar #handmade #coachbuilding #fabrication #manualmachinist #toolmaking #toolanddie #5052 #aluminumfabrication #customcar #handmadecar #planishinghammer #blackhawkbantam #blackhawktoolbox https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LIMHDHYMl/?igshid=4hdihrkpz20a

Made a crude 1/24 scale cardboard buck, now enlarging to 1/12 and will make it out of 1/8" hardboard. If everything comes out looking decent, I'll make a full size buck. #cardesign #coachbuilding #sheetmetalfabrication #sheetmetalshaping #sheetmetalbuck #woodenbuck #drafting #geometry #customcar #drawing #vintagebooks #lofting #loftinglines https://www.instagram.com/p/B6zV3npnPnd/?igshid=148wcgvec2abw

Made a little tool to scribe a line flush with the bottom of the buck. Easier than trying to follow the line on the inside of the part. Tool made from stainless. #homemadetools #handmade #metalshaping #sheetmetalfabrication #sheetmetalbuck #woodenbuck #scribe #cutline
