More Didi Mini transat rudders to shape
This is a trial cut panel in MDF (supawood)you can see the clear advantage in doing foils this way?
We always glue up foil blanks with phenolic glues,we also glue up on the steel table saw top,its 100% flat,so we get a perfect surface for the planer thickneser to plane to the correct thickness
Our first rudder attempts in the picture above, was for Warlock,we made them by hand,not the best way to shape foils,so we did them a second time but with the CNC machine to do the shapes.
We seem to have done quite a lot of the CNC shaped Rudders and Foils now,a new order asks for the two rudders plus the drop keel foil too,that is from the Didi 26 which we have also done before,here are a few pictures of the start of the process with rudders.
