Aires Windvane template

[nauticalnomad]

I am not sure if its been asked before.. I have searched but nothing.
Does anybody have a template for the vane that sits upon an Aires wind steering system?
Much appreciated if I can get some help....

It is not only the size and shape that is important but also the weight.
I made a couple of Aries vanes out of a piece of any-old-ply that I found in a skip - they were not heavy enough, didn't work and I had to go and spend beer tokens on the proper stuff - ouch.
Was it 6mm far eastern ? - a few years ago - can't remember.

Good luck
