Making the mast round: The base is 85mm square for about 250mm . Then progresses from a diameter of 75mm to a diameter 85mm (about the middle). It then tapers to a diameter of 60mm at the top of the mast. If you are interested in the geometry of making a mast go to http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Solid-Boat-Mast
