Hi all,
EDIT: Apparently I had erroneously used "stave" instead of "rabbet". Apologies, now corrected. English is a second language for me and so far in my life the need for woodworking and marine terms has been rather limited
My build is slowly but surely progressing, and hopefully I’ll be building the mast in the near future.
I have a bit of a problem as my workshop is too small to push the full length stave through a tablesaw for tapering and rabbet cutting. As the staves will need to be scarfed from two shorter pieces anyway, has anyone cut the taper and rabbets to the shorter pieces first and then scarfed them to make the full length? That would seem to make things easier but is there something I am overlooking?
