Next, the centre layer (keep) is built.
Attention, make sure that 2 different, mirrored
mast halves are created.
Start at the base of the mast.

Fig.: Mast base
Glue the two 8x3 mm strips 4.5 to one of the
two pole halves. Then connect the 3x3 mm
strip 4.4 on one side. To slide the sail into the
mast, create a 20 mm bevel.
Glue the 10x1 mm strip 4.6 to the other edge.
Make sure that the distance to part 4.4 is at
least 3 mm. For this purpose, pieces of 3x3
mm strip can be placed in between as spacers.

The two strips 4.4 and 4.6 end 10 mm below
the end of the glued plywood parts.
Now glue the two parts 4.7 together.

Fig.: Mast top
Glue the mast top to the mast half.
Only one strip 4.6 (10x1 mm) is glued to the
second half of the mast. This strip is glued on
as on the first side, starting 290 mm from the
base of the mast. Apply the same bevelled
edge as on the other half of the mast. It also
ends 10 mm below the top end of the mast.
Now glue the two halves of the mast together.
Make sure that the resulting 1 mm gap is not
pressed together when gluing. The sail will be
inserted into this gap later.
Sand the mast round and taper the thickness
towards the top.
The next step is to make the two booms. Let's
start with the main boom.
