THen I added another 1/32" piece , twice the length of the first one, filled and sanded, and then sanded the outside ends again. I removed about 3/32" from the outside ends. Now they have compound curves and are drying overnight after gessoing. |

I glued a beveled piece of 1/32" stock on the inside of the curved pieces, added filler and sanded smooth. I then sanded the outside of the pieces so that they were equal from center to edge. |

The small holes will be enlarged after the spinners get a couple of coats of gesso which strengthens the wood. The prop blades painted yellow will also be left to dry awhile. |
