Frisbee Challenge Entry
Hi All...
Here is my entry for the frisbee challenge...straight grained Fir, 3mm x 25mm x 203mm (yep, have been learning the metric system!!), three coats of Daly's Pro-Fin finish.
On it's inaugural flight it went about 6 to 7 meters...and it did not break on landing!! I don't own a video camera, so can't show it in actual flight, but might be able to borrow one...stay tuned.
Wishin' that there was some way I could join you blokes for the "fly-off", but SWMBO has already nixed and forbidden me to spend $$ for a flight to Australia....bummer!!!!Cheers,
Ed

Look like a good frisbee.

Look forward to the video. Should try and fly mine. Maybe on some nice soft grass. Will tie the dog up so she doesn't catch it.anne-maria.

Ad...it's made from a wood called Douglas Fir, which grows predominately in the north-west United States.
Do you have in the Netherlands also?
