Building and learning to sail a model sailboat
On my northeast trip, I built and sailed a model sailboat. And found out that sailing is pretty cool!
I found my sailboat plans in an online publication called "The Coastal Passage". Here's the article (thecoastalpassage.com/cheapcat.html) and the whole issue (thecoastalpassage.com/papers/tcp75.pdf).

    Hi there Ryan did you get your machine made? I'm collecting ideas to build a mechanical ant with 6 legs driven by 1 double shafted electric motor and gear box and since there is only one motor all the legs will be in sync with 3 on the ground at any time ,, 2 legs on one side and 1 leg on the other side all running with bike chain and sprockets, I will be sitting in a seat behind it doing my shopping I think the kids in town will get a kick out of it.

    Hi Ryan This isn't a criticism, it's an amazing feat you have accomplished, the rollers:- if both roller journal or stocks are made of metal and then so are bearers (the tracks at the side they run on) they will wear but also slip, the bearers are always metal but on more modern platens the journals are made of a hard nylon, on old platens there would be a leather strap on the bearers and you would then shim under the strap with strips of card to get the correct type height. This was done so the leather would wear and could be replaced not the metal bearers and journals.

She literally just started her first sewing project making a pillow and went straight into the difficult task of making a compression packing cube. I think she's going to love your tutorial! Could you give measurements of the bag you're showing so she has a reference point to start the project? Thanks so much!❤

    This is actually a very good idea, especially when you look at the crazy prices for such a large square with such a lip from Woodpeckers. Even cheap knock offs are expensive. I wonder if, from using it, you think of adding a piece of wood to both side so that you can use the square in more situations.

    Hey Ryan, I spent a few months researching the whole wide web to see if anyone has some more detailed plans on a press like this... Never found anything besides an unfinished 3D-model. And now, just by adding "cad" to my search, your stuff shows up. This is amazing. My plan was to try and make a 3d-printable letterpress. I just wanted to thank you for being kind enough to share your work. I got some videos of yours to watch now.

    The tension on sewing machine is loose needs adjusting , I think you need a size 14 needle the one you used is a bit large thus making seam holes big, as a general rule I always get scraps of fabric to get the right tension ! I’m like you if I do something it’ll eat on me till I redo right , this is a learning lesson! I expect you will do better ! Great tutorial!

    Observing the action of the rollers in the last seconds of the video prompts me to suggest that your side rails are too high. The rollers should glide onto the ink wheel, not drop down onto the wheel. Looking sideways, the top of rails should be in line with the wheel, for a gentle landing
