The Sirius Project

A Replica Adventure

​This is a project website covering the construction of a historic aircraft replica and my plans to recreate the epic flight Charles Lindbergh took in his Lockheed Sirius. Check out the history, my blog, and the construction log.

First parts cut

HI. I spent Friday night and Saturday prepping strips for assembling the first diaphragm (#5). Had to split them down the middle on the bandsaw, sand them with my drum sander (that I built), and then cut the scarf joints with my jig on the radial arm. Pete helped a bit!!
