I made this biplane from a card board cut out book and the book said it should fly so I tried it in my garden. I was surprised that it did actually fly well enough to get across my garden.

Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap.
