Captain Richards Confederate Airforce















Greetings leadheads... Well we got a Confederate
tank, a Union missile launcher and now we got a
Confederate Zepplin.  I was looking for a way to make this when my wife suggested a Coke bottle.
I don't think I can return this 2 and a half liter bottle for my 5 cent refund anymore.

  1. A recycled bottle-zeppelin! Looks like enough motive power attached on the balloon to be a drag-zepp, Capt.!

    An idea, a project, a terrific model!

  7. Thank you everyone for the comments...You wouldn't believe how strong these bottles are.
    I had to use a saw to cut the neck off. I'm gonna try to hang this thing and light it up shooting down on the missile.

  8. Very cool. Great use of the bottle. Perfect size and shape, and if you hadn't told us it was made from a pop bottle I'd never have guessed.
