  Handmade Wood Toy Airplane Modeled After The A-10 Thunderbolt II aka Warthog Order Yours Today My Airplane Collection My Shop Front Page I made this for my grandson for Christmas. He had asked me to make an A-10 for him for months, and this was the closest I could get. I modified it some, and if I make another one, I have further modifications planned. I needed to get the canopy defined better. I did a good job cutting the pieces out. They fit back together so well that you can barely see the lines. I did not install the wing guns as the plans required. A-10s don't have guns in the wings. I didn't use dowels for the engine nacelles. I planned a flat spot on them and glued them on. I am still trying to figure out how to drill the holes precisely. John, the designer, should make a video showing how you did it if he built one. I have discovered that many of the people out there selling these toy plans do not create them. In my opinion, test builds are necessary. They should give

A-10 Thunderbolt II (aka Warthog) Wood Toy Airplane Build

  My Granson has repeatedly asked for one of these for several weeks every time I see him. I made this one for him for Christmas. Originally I had not intended to make one of these because I don't like the size, and it the details are not correct, but my grandson is seven and probably will not notice.   Drilling The Engine Nacelle For An A-10 Thunderbolt Wood Toy Airplane     The first problem I had was drilling the center hole. The plans say to drill the hole 1-inch deep. It does not need to be that deep. I drilled half that far, and 1/4-inch would have been enough. I had trouble getting the hole centered using my drill press and a heavy vise. When the point of the bit first made contact with the end of the dowel, the end grain would cause the bit to shift slightly. Next time I will need to break out the lathe chuck The second problem I had was drilling the holes for the dowels in the Nacelle. I tried everything I could think of to drill the hole straight through the center and

Stacking layers of plywood parts to make toys. I keep plywood around for the occasional toy that needs the extra strength. When Steve Good published this on his blog, I had no intention of making it, but my grandson saw the photos he had to have one. He loves it. He didn't complain about it not having actual wheels, which surprised me a bit. It's not difficult to cut on the scroll saw. The only issue with the pattern is that the slot size is 1/4-inch, and the baltic birch plywood I have is metric, so the fit isn't perfect. Th
