Hello

Has anyone tried using the long brown tent poles from the Indian Tipees
(wig-wams) as spars for pirate ships ?

They look like the "towballs" could be used to hold the sails.

They could work, but they would be best for a much larger ship since you
would want to use them in pairs. The real problem I would see is that
they will probably be useable for one spar per mast since you can't
customize the distance between the towballs.
