  • A wooden biplane is twice the fun. Fun for you to make, and fun for the kids to play with. This is my take on making a pretty simple but still awesome-looking plane.
    For this build, I made the plan available for free; please let me know what you think of the build and the plans.

    My wife and Daughter are registered and the kids will love it. I am retired now and looking for new ways to use my years of experience in DIY. I plan on making several and painting them in different designs. A good idea to share with you is use and old wood knitting or even a metal one. Saves making a cone too. Love that you make the plan free - keep up this great work

    Siempre me han apasionado los biplanos.
    El que Ud. nos muestra , es hermoso y fácil de realizar.
    Yo le agregaría un poco de color. Ganaría mucho.
    ¡¡¡ Felicitaciones !!!

    Made this from your plans today in ash from the firewood pile. Just a few finishing touches and a poly finish to go tomorrow. I'll be making another half the size bigger as a bird feeder (which is what I was supposed to be doing). The plans worked a treat. Thank you for sharing. UK
