When I opened my ships yesterday only one had the dreaded Formast rot.
Here it is.
Here also is my five minute repair method using paper clip and Super Glue.
Take a needle file and file the mast flat and square.
Using a fine No.78 drill or similar and Pin vice make a pilot hole in the center of the mast.
Repeat for the stub in the deck.
Then open both holes up to drill size 66.
Super glue in a paper clip to the mast section.
Trim to length.
Add glue and slip into the Deck stub ensuring squareness in all planes.
Job done.
Rob.
