Just brass tube soldered together.
Held in place by what my grandad used to call " a thing on purpose".
Haddock.
Here's a thing on purpose.
Haddock.

Hi Haddock,
Have you a picture of your 'a thing on purpose' in use and holding the parts?
Cheers,
Bigkev
I hope my next is always better

Here's a picture of the thing on purpose in use holding the mast in place.

Then there's a picture of some paint sloshed on the starboard side.

That's hardly sloshing.

Anyhow, isn't it a thing of purpose?

But it has a purpose too!
More gay abandon with the airbrush I see.

Hi Andy,
Be careful, you might be akin to a train spotter if your not careful.

Progress to date after yards of masking tape.
I'm starting to think how to rig the thing, I can't find any
pictures that are helpful.
The masts are very tall and slender so would have been well supported.
