How to Make Your Own Sails - Part I 

Ta much for this. I plan to get creative soon, so this is helpful

Fantastic, thanks a lot!

This is a good series of videos for someone who wants to try making sails for a model boat. In my case, a first A rig for an EC-12. Curious what you're using for tape and whether both tapes are the same? Challenge offers a few different tapes - their AS series (Seamstick), the ASV series (Super-Tack), and the AS3 series (Transfer Tape). I intend to make a few paper sails to try the technique, the use the Challenge DPL fabric for the boat.

It would help if you included “toy” or “model” in your title.

Thank you.

Hi MechDoc2, i'm nearing the completion on my 1st Thunder Tiger Victoria. I don't want to use the stock sails provided for several reasons, but have been unable to find a pattern to make my own. Can you provide a link or suggest a where I can source a pattern? Thank you kindly for your video - Mel

Please reply to some of comments , thank you.

I've made a couple of paper sails recently, and had decent luck with the main. For the jib, I can't seem to get the draft to move forward of the mid point of the seam. I'm wondering if you've tried a) moving the deflection screw off center, or b) putting a taper in the beam?
