Huey

I’ve had the intention for many years now to make a helicopter sculpture. It wasn’t until finding the reciprocating mechanism from a large scroll saw that I actually found the inspiration to attempt it. Some model airplane propellors at a flea market sealed the deal. The little pilot is made from a garlic press and part of the coolant system from a refrigerator.
