Light Schooner Construction : Birdsmouth Masts : Backyard Sawmill

Back


Birdsmouth jig

Mainmast


I cut the staves for the mast on the back deck -- I made a LOT of sawdust -- 16 feet times 3 cuts (1 for width plus 2 for the notch) times 8 staves, plus 4 feet of taper per mast is over 400 feet of cuts. Times 2 masts!
