nice one :) building one for my kid now. How do you determine the center of pivot so that it alligns perpendicular with the wind?

Do you have drawings/plans for it? I'm sure they are online, and I probably even have them in a book of wooden toy plans somewhere... but it might shorten my search if I can find out your source.

No, i don't have any plans. I made it without drawings. The total lenght of the wing is 52 cm. So i think you can scale it back from here. Good luck and have fun building your own duck.

Congratulations

are the wings going in the same direction? Most have 1 wing going clockwise and the other counter clockwise

Dennis Adams both wings turn in the same direction. Wings are not combined but can turn free each..

Spins nice. I like to make my wing opposite angles so that the wings spin in opposite directions
