Tools: pencil, jigsaw, ruler, half round file, drill, pop rivet gun, hammer, mandrel, plus the drill bit and hole saw above.

Location on the Mast

Exits at least 300 mm apart vertically to keep the mast strong; one exit each side at the same level is acceptable.
As a spinnaker halyard inlet: 500-1000 mm below the headbox, 12-30 mm from the mast front line, 250 mm apart vertically (24 mm exit: 500-1400 mm below the headbox, 12-50 mm from the front line).

Fitting Procedure

Draw a line parallel to the mast axis and mark the two holes for each fitting.
Pre-drill with the rivet-size drill bit.
Open the holes with the hole saw.
Draw straight lines between the holes, one each side, touching their edges; check the spacing equals the part of the fitting that goes into the slot.
Saw along the inner edges of the lines so the slot matches the fitting's lugs; file smooth without notches.
Insert the fitting the right way up (UP/DOWN on the drawing) and push it upward so its upper end is held by the mast wall.
Drill for the pop rivet using the fitting as a jig; pull the rivet and knock out the mandrel.
