+# Repairing and tuning the Whisper with 3D printed parts
+![3D printing](whisperfoilingcatamaranreplacementwand.png)
+
+* [__wand system__](#Wand-System) to replace parts that break with easier access as well as tunings
+* [__rudder holder__](#Rudder-Holder) to lock in various heights in shallow waters
+* [__speedpuck mount__](#Speedpuck-Mount)
+
+# Wand System
+The [Whisper foiling catamaran](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwhb6u4A_Hy-c-eJbMLW7bg) uses "wands" as ride height sensor to dynamically control the foil lift. Parts of that wand system break from time to time, so printing them yourself can be convenient.
+
+
+To produce an entire wand, you do need:
+--------------------------------------------------------
+* carbon rod (CFK) 8mm diameter, 1m length (you will need to cut it to 830mm length)
+
+* 3D print paddle (lower end)
+* 3D print arm (top part of wand)
+* 2 stainless screws (3mm x 10mm or longer) -- you will clip to proper length anyway
+
+Print material needs to be stronger than PLA, so I use e.g. ASA instead..
+
+
+additional replacement parts related to the wand system:
+--------------------------------
+* lever inside of foil ride height mechanism
+
+
+Updates:
+----------------------
+* 20180826: updated wand arm to mount the rod screw from the side
+* 20200530: added wand paddle/skimmer model with screw mounting from aft
+* 20200530: added wand paddle/skimmer model with screw mounting side - maybe thats the most convenient option for mounting. 
+* 20200606: added wand arm version to mount the rod screw from aft, and another version to mount the screw from both sides, to make unmount/mounting easier. mechanically is the version from 2018 with one rod screw from side more robust.
+
+wand arm:
+===========
+* use 8mm drill to create a snug fit of the rod into the 3D printed parts
+* drill 5mm hole for the shock cord that pulls the arm back
+* drill 4mm hole for the hinge
+* drill 2.5mm holes for the metal connector, and cut a M3 3mm metric thread into it 
+* drill a 2.5mm hole into the carbon rod for the 3mm screw (I use a HSS-cobalt drill for the Carbon rod)
+* clip the screw to a length so it just doesnt stand out on the other side of the arm
+
+wand paddle:
+===========
+* use 8mm drill to create a snug fit of the rod into the 3D printed parts
+* drill a 2.5mm hole for the 3mm screw (I use a HSS-cobalt drill for the Carbon rod)
+* clip the screw to a length so it just doesnt stand out on the other side of the paddle
+
+wand rod:
+=============
+* total length of original wand including arm and paddle is 930mm
+* cut the carbon rod to 830mm 
+
+wand ride height lever:
+===========
+* drill 2.5mm holes for the 3mm screws (I use a HSS-cobalt drill for the Carbon rod)
+* drill 2.5mm holes for the connecting rod
+* cut M3 3mm metric thread into it -- you might use only 2 of three cutting tools, so that the fit of the screw is tighter
+* a tiny bit of glue helps additionally to lock the screws, so they dont open accidentally 
+

 # rigging and trimming tips
 ## main sail 
 O-shackle should be placed in a way that the knot shows towards the mast. This is needed so that the main halyard unhooks easily when rotating the mast 90 degrees.
