I did a couple of practice runs on some scrap and then ripped into it. Piece of cake, it's a lovely machine and it ate up the Hoop, leaving a great finish. I found the adjustments to be quite user friendly and easy to make

Now I just have to sand and apply the finish.
The mast ended up 7.4kg. The boom and yard are 2.0kg apiece. The shorter one is the boom.
I've also attached a pic of the foils. The colour in these pics looks very red, but in fact its a port wine colour.
Time for a coffee!
Wow, really nice work. I'm envious of that high gloss finish on the foils. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob. It's not hard to do. I should do a post on the easy way to achieve a nice finish hey?
