I noticed on the plans that you showed that the mast aft side is kept straight. The taper is from the forward side backwards. Rather than a symmetrical cone, it is an inclined cone. It would suggest that the channel dimensions should not change over the length of the mast.
Hi Jason, thanks for the video. Strange that that sail material won't glue. I think you will find that your lathe will work much better if you put the steady rest up close to the work. Support the cutting end and move the grip up and down to control the depth of cut. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. Jeff
Thank you for another video. It looks like the instructions says to taper the dowe down to 6mm, not 5. not sure if the 1mm will make a big difference though :)
Morning Jaosn. I think at 15.17 it shows the hole being 2mm diameter and 5mm deep . Looks like the proxxon will by my next purchase. Thanks for another great video
Still following and still enjoying. Very nice work but I don’t understand what Amati is using for the sail material that it would not adhere to itself.
Hi Jason....was that 1/72 Matchbox Flower class Corvette you did a video on yours or was it just sent to you from our good friend Mr Peter Oxley for review
Sorry Jason but the way you're using that lathe is really dangerous. You really must get that steady in as close as possible to the thing you're cutting. If that chisel grabs then is not going to be pretty ! Soz. Can't help myself after 30 years of teaching this stuff. Definitely don't want to see you get hurt. Best wishes Bryan
Hi Jason, very strange thing with this glue and sail material, the yacht looks very handsome. Thanks and have a great day, Dom

Also less chances of flipping your tool

So ref my comment on the video it might be important to taper the dowe down to only 6 mm. If not you might drill through the dowe.
