Description

Classic elmwood fiddle block with bindings of high-tensile and exceptionally seawater-resistant aluminum bronze.

This is a classic backstay block, therefor it's available with or without becket (technical drawing: Hdf).

Built from Dutch patterns in a small workshop.
Similar to the design of American yacht blocks. However, the axles are not bolted together, rather they are covered with small bronze plates. The sheaves are casted from aluminum bronze run on bronze bearings.
The housing is copper-rivited and high gloss varnished with EPIFANES.
