Svenska IF-båtförbundets forum

Hi there,
I've seen a lot of info about the screws and pins but didn't see a picture with the measures of the hings of the rudder.
I`m intending to make a 3d drawing of it.
There are not many drawings of details about the rudder except these;

The drawing displayed here is the only drawing of the kind that I have ever seen. It was published the first time in the Danish IF-boat magazine "IF-bladet" a couple of decades ago. The author was late Henrik Blomdahl, the former owner of "Muffe".

Okay,
Then I have to do it myself from the original
Thanks

Just made a few drawings from it

Great!

Would it be possible for you to zoom in on the hinge and the pintle parts? It is hard to read the measurements. Or can you make a pdf-file of the drawings?

It looks that I can NOT ad a pdf file to the message.
"Invalid file extension"
Is that common or for this message?

This original sketching are from Medvind nr 2- 2010.

You are quite right L-Å!

I just measured three old ones I have saved. The diameter is larger than 12,00 mm. It varies between 13,10 and 13,30 mm on those three, measured with a caliper.

Perhaps there are variants. Check for a press fit in the hinge part hole before making the pins!

I made the drawing by measuring old ones so there will probably be a difference in the sizes.
So be careful when you replace this part
