Continuing work on the windmill sails. I did a foam core board mock-up the last time I worked on the mill. These gave me the measurements I needed for each sail.
Before I do all the work of cutting tiny pieces of wood to make a true sail frame, I wanted to mock them up further. I used cardboard scraps to make a grid approximation for the sails.
I wasn’t especially careful in cutting so it went reasonably fast. I taped the new grid sails to the bamboo skewers and inserted those into the hub.
I put the sails on the foam core mock-up front to see if these still look good for size. Yep, I think that’ll do. :]
