First sail constructed
Continuing work on the windmill sails. I've done some research on windmills and a fair bit of virtual sightseeing, but I am by no means an expert. I am also not planning a precise model, though there are some remarkable works out there. After seeing a real life example, I decided to change my design to match.
This might have been a bit of overkill for a model, but I also used nails in addition to the glue. I don't need these suckers popping apart later on down the line, and since they will be motorized it's likely worth the extra time and effort.
I am going to leave the final finishing as far as stain goes until after I have all the parts fabricated just in case something breaks along the line and needs to be redone.
One sail down, three more to go. Full post here.
