Gregory Posted August 5, 2022 #2 Posted August 5, 2022 Interesting, but I don't think it would have the strength of a built-up mast. thibaultron, Ian_Grant and mtaylor 3 Quote “Indecision may or may not be my problem.” ― Jimmy Buffett Current builds: Rattlesnake On Hold: HMS Resolution ( AKA Ferrett ) In the Gallery: Yacht Mary, Gretel, French Cannon
dvm27 Posted August 6, 2022 #3 Posted August 6, 2022 One of my favorite You Tubers The Art of Boat Building recently did a video on making a mast. He used many of the same techniques we taught in our Admiralty Models workshop on masting and sparring for making a tapered mast. Check out his video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaWIIiv9zRg&ab_channel=TheArtofBoatBuilding. His next video was on building a half hull model and his lofting and building of the model should interest many of the modelers here.

Kevin Kenny Posted August 6, 2022 Author #4 Posted August 6, 2022 I follow the art of boat building as well and you are right. What i find so interesting is that we follow as much as we can, the same techniques in model building. Sometimes it so hard to see the techniques but in full scale it becomes so obvious . kevin Knocklouder, dvm27 and mtaylor 3 Quote
