Free Applewhite Pinwheel Part 2 Cutting It Out

Here's the backside of the "A" piece.
You can see the cuts and fold lines.
Note: The dashed lines on the "B" piece don't get creased. Those dashed lines are the glue positions for the folded tips on the "A" part base.

The small center hole is for the MMX launch rod.
It was made using the rotary punch.



The hardest part of the build is cutting out the round engine mount tube hole.

I tried to "round out" the hole using a tapered dowel.


All four pieces are cut out, folded and ready for gluing.
It doesn't look like much now, but it's pretty amazing how it all folds and comes together.
