With “Ogre” there were a number of unique components that peaked our interest. I was drawn to the unique engine, Gumby to the strange tailskid. Without the benefit of actual close up photos the Gumster and I have been pondering the tail skid fabrication for quite a while.

We shall slow our pace, construct the center wing section over the cabane struts, fabricate a Lewis gun or two, mount them, add a bit of detailing to the fuselage, then address the wing issue.

Here is the first test fit; not bad. I will CA a ring of fine solder to the small end to ensure that it remains circular and give it a little strength.
