Rudder

Built the rudder last winter. It was a great diversion away from work, etc!
Constructed from 100 x 100 mac. then machined to shape (lots of wood shavings).
Also inserted 5 stainless rods through the blade to help strengthen it.
Basic dimensions of the blade are 1.8 long x 800 wide.
Looking forward to hanging it once the engine shaft is in.
