I had a walk at the Nelson market and found this :clap: :









The guy said it takes about two hours to make something like that. The medium size was $12. I think it's a good deal for a handmade stuff.

Those are pretty cool, I've actually got a similar one that I seem to remember I acquired in Australia quite a while ago.

I keep trying to make those but once I've disposed of the beer I lose interest.

These are pretty cool.
I think you can get them at most airshows etc
I have seen them at craft markets before.
I might have to have a go at making some B-)

Cheers

I have something similar hanging from the ceiling in my bedroom.
I'm not sure that it's actually modelled after an aircraft in particular, but it looks to me like a single piston prop engine biplane.
It's made out of Coke cans, which goes to show that my family does/used to drink an insane amount of soft drink (well and the hard ones too) :lol:
Also proves that I was always into aviation :thumbup:

I've had since I was really little, and for some reason, I just like it :unsure:
