Didi Mini Transat Cruise Rudders

We have done a good many sets of rudders to the Didi mini transats,the first were cut by hand using templates set every 200mm down the blade,just shaping took three days,they were never going to be perfect,close was as good as one could hope for. Now we have them programed into Nigels CNC machine,we just supply him with the oregon pine blanks and he cuts the shape and profile for us,we know that each blade is exactly the same and we save about two days doing the shaping too!

Rudder Foils pre cut by Nigels CNC machine,they will shaped by hand,glassed with epoxy and biaxial glass cloth,epoxy primed and when finished,shipped to John in England when ready.
