Description

Are you fascinated by the art of steam bending but bewildered by the process? Mast Hoops have been traditionally used in small boats and tall ships - find them on CWB’s catboats, sprit rigs and gaffers, to name a few. In this one-day class, we will explore the techniques for making them. Students will learn how to lay out and build the jig, the proper grain lay of the bending oak strips, how to set up and operate a steam box, bend the strips together and rivet them with copper cut nails and roves.
