Not to be a smart aleck, but what is an airscooter? If it's what I think it is, I might have to make one.

Yep, it hides my woodworking sins!
Wonderful stuff for contours on painted projects like these models.
And fills rasp marks very nicely.
The 90* elbow is doped aircraft fabric over a steel tube armature on the real machine.
That results in quite a convex appearance! To duplicate that, I used a rasp on a 2" poplar dowl. Sandpaper, and wall joint compound to smooth it.
A Woodneter suggested the rasp for this, when I asked about it awhile ago. Works well!

I read the previous page on the way in. You won't need to send further info. Very nice work though. I was hoping for a childs toy.
