Double sided tape
Fig. Apply adhesive tape
Pull off the covering tape and glue the edge
against each other.
Fig. forestay
Now also make a loop at the other end of the
forestay so that the final length is 950 mm.
As with the mainsail, glue the reinforcements
of the 8.6 adhesive tape onto the corners of
the foresail.
Finally, place the eyelets in each of the 3 sail
corners to fasten the sails. To make the holes,
sharpen the punch 7.10 and punch the holes in
the corners (light hammer punch).
Now put one of the eyelets (rivet 7.5) with
washer 7.6 through each hole and put another
washer 7.6 on the opposite side. Now the eye-
lets can be flanged around. This can be done
with a suitable riveting pliers or punch or sim-
ply with a Phillips screwdriver and light ham-
mer blows.

Now fasten the foresail to the foresail boom.
For this purpose make the bracket from parts
6.14 to 6.16.
Fig. bracket and top fitting
Attach the forestay to the S-hook. Tie the sail
to the bracket with strap 8.10 and attach the
carbine 6.17 to the boom.
Fasten the jib sail with a short strap 8.10 in
such a way that an even distance is main-
tained between the lower edge of the sail
(lower leech) and the foresail boom.
