Remembering the Micro group''s fine efforts in scale laminated wood propellers its no wonder that they turn to us again to announce some new 1:32 products!

Just in time for Christmas 2013! Craig Rosner of the Micro Group has just sent in an impressive array of propellers. I have to comment first These items are some of the best versions I have seen to date.
In the group of items there is a 1:32 scale Sopwith single seat fighter "scimitar" profiled propeller. This propeller was made using Ebony and Fir and represents the highest level of skill and artistry I have seen so far. Being a very dense, hard and brittle wood. It is an extremely hard wood to carve by hand. That a propeller was made using this wood has to be a significant personal achievement. Most impressive! Review to follow.

I carve a lot of my own so can appreciate excellent work such as this. I've never done a 4 Blade Prop like these; they look truly magnificent!
