Project Schism - another offbeat '23 Ford T

[toddshotrods]

I have been working on this piece over the past week. The point is to countersink the hood molding into the cowl. I just did a step or two here and there around other work. First the model, then cut a plug from a scrap piece of oak, paint it, a few coats of mold release, then carbon fiber (because it makes a thinner, stronger part).




Next, the cowl will be cut, and the piece will be bonded in.


I started a new project, a little rat rod speedster, because I really want to go for the limit with Schism and needed something else to play with to keep me from getting off track trying to meet unnecessary deadlines. With that in mind, I view this body as a plug to develop what I would like to have rolled and hammered in aluminum sheet, someday.
