RE: 24''Wildthing Build...first time builder
Here a<font face="Times New Roman" size="3">re a few pics of the rudder i built with insperation from Simon O.
I know the stuffing box/tube needs to be level with the keel ,it's just resting there right now i'm not epoxying it in untill i know it is in the right place.I can adjust the drive angle up or down because there is a flex wire that i made from a spedo cable i got at the auto parts store inside there.I soldered a solid 1/8 shaft using a small brass sleeve to the flex wire.I will use some 1/8 wheel collars to hold on the prop.
So i know i need to lower the stuffing tube and i will but that aside how does the rudder set up look?Does it seem to be mounted at the right height?The blade is 4'' long 3/4 from the bottom of the blade to the bracket at the top that holds it.</font>
