The silk span sail article was quite detailed and brought a whole new perspective to me on sail making.   Never in a hundred years would I have thought to use my CAD program and printer as part of sail making.  Even if one is not using CAD, the description of making the actual piece of sail itself was very informative.

The sailmaking article is strikingly similar to that published in TFFM, Volume IV, or the separate article from SeaWatchBooks, apart from the use of the printer.

Hmmmm. Just read a few of the pieces in the MSB Journal: indeed, a very interesting and photo detailed article on sailmaking.

 

Personally, I got quite a distinct (and unsettling) feeling of DejaVu.
