Shaping the Cowl (Plug)

Building the Cowl Plug around the motor. 

Using any off cuts of polystyrene. Just add them where you think you need

Trying to get symmetry is the trick

The polystyrene was just glued with wood glue. 

Mocking up the canopy line


Add a spinner to get the lines right.


A layer of glass and epoxy once it was almost there

bottom skin done

I covered the fuss with sticky tape so the plug  wouldn't be permanent.

Top skin done.
