pedal plane update
« on: March 04, 2012, 07:55:27 AM »
so I got the plans and hardware kit for the pony.  that thing is more complicated than I was thinking it was going to be, so I ordered the wood kit and the rest of the materials due to not doing much wood working I dont have a router or bandsaw.  If anyone wants a copy of the plans let me know






and a couple pics of my tractor carb, dont know why it wouldnt run

ok thanks, I ordered the wood so it comes precut.  Just unsure of painting.  Not sure what to use, oil or latex?  It will be kept inside so I dont really worry about the weather getting to it, just want it to last a long time.

That looks cool. I would use oil paints if you're going to use it mostly inside, unless you've got a small child who will be using it lots. Then, use latex :)
