Well I’m snowed in for several days it looks like. So I spent a little more time today on these tail wings. They just set on the rail. I thought about putting some pins in to help hold them, but they are made of plywood and I know they will come apart if I try to drill them. So I just used brown CA.

The rudder has to be painted and hinges installed. The rest of these little parts balance somehow on those wings. There has to be room for the tiller to fit through so they’ll have to wait for the rudder.

Tomorrow I start the mast and yard.

Oh, here’s my jig I used to bend those tail wings:-)
