The clamping screw goes through a trunnion, so it will pull the jaw down onto the slide as it grips. I don't see a nut/adjuster, only a peg on the sliding jaw casting, dunno what that might be for. ...

Its all "believe that" "think that" "expect that". Could it be that the scaremongering is working?

If that floor will come out without further damage, I'd glue on a new arm and re fit it. Apart from the damage caused by the iron bolts it could well be rock hard. A lamination on the top curve...

Interesting that the two halves were floating fairly level trim. It suggests that there was not a lot wrong with the loading plan. Only 5 years old, so bad maintenance is unlikely to be the...

Considering that the US completely missed out on the empire phase (if you ignore the Philippines and Costa Rica) I cannot see the relevance of your post. :D

No Wukkas. :D

If that is true, you have got to ask yourselves "Is America still the best democracy that money can buy?"

^That will trap any rain in the furled sail, OK with synthetics, but it would look more tiddly with the sail on top of the boom, with the yard on top so that each concertinaed layer sheds water.

Hi, welcome to the forum.

Nice draftsmanship.

You need to think about sail balance and where that will put the keel with the ballast, and its effect on trim.

My deepest condolences to everyone that Xavier touched in his short life.

I'm just finishing The science of Diskworld IV, which shines the spotlight on religion, and Human-centred or univerce-centred thinking. An excellent read.

That was my idea, but I suggested a couple of female armed robbers for the feminine convention.
