My 3D rendering skills are steadily improving, and these days I can flick out a 3d model for a foil in a couple of hours. I have almost started some new artistic hobby where I design models for both new foils and existing foils that are out there, not to physically make them, but just because I can.
First there’s the Bladerider-ish main foil …
Then a Mach 2-esque rudder
Then I move onto my new main foil design that I will probably make in 2010, which looks really plain and boring with no bulb.
Hi Bruce,
If you ever fancy sending one of those bulb wing files my way so we can get a plug/ mould made up feel free!
Cheers,
Phil
Phil,
Why would you make moulds for these when you can just buy them off the shelf from Bladerider or Mach 2?
The other thing is that the whole “prep for construction” is another 2-4 hours of modelling work to put in details like vertical join cutouts and cutting flaps in.
