Teakell’s Table further continued…

Joe’s pride in the tiny B-17, with the camo-painted hull, was understandable, given the size and detail, but there was another reason to admire his detailed work. The craft has four tiny, accurate propellers (see pic 1). Though a tad difficult to see here, all those props spun when stimulated by his finger (see pic 2) as evidenced by the different positions of the props on the second picture.

A second, silver bodied civilian craft, as tiny in scale, that he’d completed, also boasted movable tiny props (see pic 3). A third mini, WWII bomber also had rotating props. (see pic 4). The final product was a striking as it was authentic.
