Brilliant. Love watching how the old girl is loved. Can I ask what is the glue used on the interior wood work? So much easier than using epoxy all the way thru. TA
Leo, with as much sincerity as can be conveyed across the interweb, I have to say that each and every single episode just gets better and better. You’re going to end up with a full on super yacht! I’m incredibly impressed with not only your (and your team’s) carpentry skills, but as a filmmaker and business person. Congratulations on your achievement. 🇨🇦
Does anyone know if the parent owns Leo or is he just hanging out to keep them straight. And does anyone know the lifespan average on a parrot like him..😊
What the heck was I doing going to university and graduate school when I could have been learning how to be a shipwright? Watching Nick work is like a dream. Such incredible craftsmanship... something we've witnessed OVER and OVER again on this channel. I am in awe... as always. And happy to be a patron of this fine crew.. Eventually this boat will sail away. I wonder who will be on the boat with Leo?
Currently you are the "cabinet boy". When he sails you can be the cabin boy. @@NicTaylorWoodworking Seriously dude, amazing workmanship. This will be a legacy for you.
Hey Leo, could you put together a video, or a segment of one, showing all of the workers, employees, volunteers, and any one else that has contributed to the completion of Tally Ho? In that video, it would be nice to know when or how long they helped, where they are today, and who works part time or comes and goes thru out the project. This would be a very interesting video, as a lot of viewers like to know background and what makes people choose to get involve in a project like yours. Thanks for considering this option.
I've 'liked' this, even though it would be a massive amount of work, because I, and I suspect most of the other supporters, would love to see it. But perhaps something less ambitious would be a better idea, at least initially - maybe 'just' a list (with photos?) of all the volunteers, workers, etc who've contributed to the project? That would be really appreciated.
@@paulhaynes8045, yes ! what you both said ! Long ago it sounded like Leo was hoping all the video will be available to memorialize a lot of ship building technique, etc. Perhaps a "just" photo montage could be done before Tally Ho is christened and maybe or maybe not a more extensive "decade perspective" done while Tally Ho is on the high seas ?
Ive just watched through the whole serie, again, and there is alot more people involved than you think. I thought I remembered alot of them but hell theres tons of volonteirs and others who have helped along the way. I love this project. I really really do. Love from Sweden 🇸🇪
Thanks, Paul. I appreciate your thoughts, and maybe your idea would be a good start. But, it would still be interesting to know who moved on to a similar job, and who went back to where they came from. At this point, anything would be very interesting.
It would be fair to say that we are all in absolute awe of the quality of cabinetry through Tally Ho, she has transcended boatbuilding and has become a work of art.
The drill under the chart table is traditionally used to FIX ONES POSITION.........boom! G'day from Tasmania the traditional boatbuilding centre of Australia
I once had an American model left behind by a school teacher in a home I bought long ago. Took me right back to my childhood it did. Except I barely fit. I used it for a while in tying flies (for trout fishing) and it was perfect. I love how everything is right within reach here.
I am glad you decided to put AIS and GPS in the boat. Just from a safety perspective its good to have especially sailing in thick fog around shipping channels you will be able to “see in the dark” to keep that very lovely boat out of trouble.
When mankind has all of this "Modern Technology" like AIS and GPS, it's sensible to install it and have it on hand (Especially the Automatic Identification System, for safety) But I also understand that navigation using a chart and compass and even a chronograph and sextant are skills that are dying out because of modern technology. It's great that Leo still has these old skills and will be keeping them alive and probably teaching others. Belt and Braces.
@@joseywales3789 So paper charts are also not being produced by most charting agencies today, as they take a long time to update, and cost a lot of $$$ and time to make, while the ENC's or electronic charts can be updated in minutes, with those updates passed on worldwide seconds after they are verified. So you kind of need to have some sort of ECDIS on any ship that is required to carry charts. You can still buy paper charts, but they will now be mostly made by third parties, and not government agencies like NOAA OCS or The British Admiralty Office. Also, AIS is a requirement by law for a lot of vessels, depending on the class and use. Sextant use and celestial navigation is again being taught to military sailors around the world as in a war, GPS/GLONASS and other GNSS systems are likely to be jammed.
I'm honestly worried by how often and how well ya'll edit in music tempo matching footage. I mean I love it. But damn that's gotta be a lot of work! Thanks for the lil bits of charm you add. It keeps things fun for sure :)
Just a guess on my part, but I think Nick colours his fingernails black so he can readily see them and keep them out of harm's way from the various tools he uses. Maybe an oldtimer's trick, IDK. His level of workmansip, like everyone on the crew, is first rate. Proud to support Leo and crew in this wonderful production.
Every time I watch one of these videos, I am struck by the multitude of highly skilled procedures that are presented as if they were everyday tasks. This, if priced out in terms of the high-grade materials and a skilled craftsman's time, illustrates the eyewatering costs and why such endeavours can only arise from the deep pockets of very wealthy individuals or corporations, or dedicated unique and multi-talented young people with dreams, like Leo Goolden, possessed by an abundance of multi-talents to keep so many balls in the air.
I love the craftsmanship that goes into the boat. It's incredible. I always wonder how much all this perfection costs. It would be so interesting to see some financial figures of the project.
Just a thought. Have you considered getting a thin sheet of perspex to cover the top of the chart table. There are two main benefits - you don't have to worry about divider points of compass point damaging the top and if it is really pouring with rain, you can place the chart under the perspex and avoid water damage to the chart. In really bad conditions, you can even plot on the chart by marking on the perspex using a chinagraph pencil. Then when you come down from the cockpit you don't lose the plot by dripping all over the chart - This what I used to do on a open bridge minesweeper.
Good idea and clearly learned from experience. Charts are waterproof and pencils write on them regardless, but your reflections are really sound. I recall using tracing paper on charts and plotting waypoints and tracks on the tracing paper and taking this to the cockpit etc as a ready tool. Drawing the details and features on the paper reinforced the notable elements and if it got lost etc it didn't matter too much.
I ended up doing that exact same thing with the top of my large wooden drafting table; the wood can deform with pencil tip pressure and things like dividers.
When I tell people about this channel, I tell them that Leo is building a forty plus foot long piece of fine furniture. Every joint and fitting is as perfect as can be. The craftsmanship and attention to detail is astounding. As the man said in an earlier episode, this is a gold plated build, which is very rare these days. And to think we'll see her launched in just a couple of years.🙂
Not only is he and the team building it, they are rebuilding it. It would have been soooo much simpler just to start with plans and build a new boat. Back in one of the very ealiest vids that Leo made (I think when he was in Cornwall), he was discussing with a boatbuilder there and the old fella said, it's always simpler and cheaper to start fresh. This would have negated all the fantasitc history. This is a most complicated verion of Trigger's broom (Ajax's axe for the classically trained) I can imagine!
Leo, I'm kind of a 'Tron' guy (electronics that is) and I'd love to have Joe explain in one of your videos how all the electonics, electrical systems, batteries, radios, radar, GPS, etc. will be protected from such things as lightning! Grounding is extremely important when you have what amounts to thousands of dollars worth of sensitive equipment to protect. I ask because as of yet I haven't seen any mention of Zinc anodes on Tally Ho to protect from the effects of sea water on things like the prop shaft or prop, let alone to provide for a discharge point to ground from what has to be a very tall lightning rod of the mast with all the antennas, nav lights, radar and GPS sitting on top of it. Thank you so much for your consideration of my request.
Leo i've just marathined through your beautiful series in a week. That goes to show how beautiful and addictive your work and videography is. Keep it up ❤
I'm ashamed to say I've been watching since around your 10th video, it's been an amazing journey with you Leo, thank you. Ashamed because I've never financially supported you. I was sitting in my shop having a break, surrounded by all my tools, which cost thousands, watching your video and bit the bullet to become a Patron. I'm sorry it took too long. I'm sure there are lots of people watching who are in the same situation. If even 10% join up for the lowest membership, it means so much for Tally Ho. thank you so much Leo and all of your amazing friends!
I am an amateur but advanced woodworker who honed his skills on a perfectly square 115 year old craftsman home whose design theme was square. Seeing the craftsmanship on this level applied to something that has nothing square is like watching the superbowl.
As a long time woodworker, I am always impressed by Nick's first class craftsmanship! That chart table is not only beautiful but functional as well. As a continued supporter of this amazing project, I always look forward to your videos Leo. Cheers & Tally Ho! 👍👍
A fun fact, the music that starts playing at 12:10 is Puerto Rican, It is called "Plena", it ends at 13:21. It is a very danceable rhythm here in the island. It feels nice that the editor of this video liked it and decided to add it in the video.
Having lived in a landlocked state all my life, I know nothing of sailing, the sea, or maritime life. Leo, your restoration of Tally Ho project has absolutely held me in awe since the get go. I will probably never be able to see Tally Ho in person, but I am enjoying watching you and your team. I compare all you guy's skills to the technicians that build Bentleys across the pond. Fantastic work. Thank you.
Actually, now I come to think about this, Leo could more or less do that if he joined Nebula and published multi-episode versions of his videos. Still a lot of work, but doable.
I think i watched Nick at 1:19, hammer in that last tongue and groove wall piece about 15 times. Matching the hammer strokes with the music made my day.
Moin from northern Germany(Dithmarschen), I'am rebuilding a 1880 Farmhouse, and the only reason i'm playing Lotto is to: Hiring craftmans like Nick... If i have not made it by myself, the work is not made correct (and often even than, it is not) So, in the mean time I'am waiting every week to join these man. Leo and his crew => unbelievable quality and craftmanship. My english is bad and i have celebrated this video, so excuse me...
Such an extraordinary odyssey of a man pursuing his dream. I just hope that leo maintains ownership of Talley-ho, it would be a crying shame for fundding issues seeing this beautiful yacht being sold off to an individual or corporation that didn't understand the amazing back-story behind Leo's vision. I too would love to see a 'where are they now' episode. There have been some amazing characters involved over the years, that have simply 'vanished' from the project

When Nick said he was going to assemble with dove tails I thought he would use a machine to do the job, but no all beautifully hand crafted and perfect. This fella will never be out of a job. Well done Nick.
Increased my Pateron today - to fund a sou'wester so you can look truly miserable in the cold months to come. Seriously - This rebuild/project is one of the most happy places I have on the internet. Thank you!
Whenever it gets close to launch, I hope you buy another boat to rebuild, and have one crew documenting Tally Ho’s seafaring, and another sharing the next rebuild. Magical stuff.
There's this rather complex equation which determines when you should move the router or the piece. It has to do with the thickness of the piece in correlation to the skin on your fingertips, and the weight of the piece divided by the weight of the router times the weight of your balls. Minus the distance between your eyeballs and your safety glasses. The number you get from this gets added to your IQ number, and that number gets divided by the monthly insurance payment. Then you measure the distance between your work station and the First-Aid kit and subtract that form the first number. If the result is negative, you need a shorter distance to the First-Aid kit, or heavier balls.
She is gorgeous inside and out! You guys and gals have put so much attention to detail into her that it is as much a work of art as it is a functional vessel.
One thought, A small hinged prop rod inside the chart table to set it at a level position. Never know when you'll want to eat your soup while deciding your next course.
Amazing work Nic - really outstanding; bravo! And: regarding Leo’s passion for traditional, celestial navigation: “I know the stars are my home. I learned about them, needed them for survival in terms of navigation. I know where I am when I look up at the sky. I know where I am when I look up at the Moon; it's not just some abstract romantic idea, it's something very real to me. See, I've expanded my home.” - Astronaut/Moon-walker Gene Cernan
Funny, at 13:15 when Nick used the hand router as a table router, I thought, "Would I have done it like that?" Then I thought, heck Nick has made more chips than I ever have, I'll defer to his judgement on routing a small, light-weight piece like that door. Then Nick stated that the internet would yell at him for that technique... No worries, Nick! Very nicely done! You are a great craftsman.
@@NicTaylorWoodworking Could have fooled me. I also figured if Nick's doing it, it's probably ok. Just a quick note though, I do hope you're hiding that gorgeous hair under a cap when working with power tools though, I've seen scalping done in an instant of carelessness, don't let that be you.
The YT explaining and presenting skills of the whole team have increased so much over time 👍🏻 a year ago or so it sometimes seemed like „Bro, just let me work…“, now it seems that the team enjoys sharing and showing the audience what goes into a project like that. Great to see! I see some of them have started their own channel already, which I think is great!
What a great piece of craftsmanship from the shipwright with nail polish ;) Nice to see that the younger generation is still interested in real craftsmanship!
The area next to the chart table is perfect for what we called in Sea Scouts, Flippys and Tweezys. Most call them parallel rules and dividers. Chart table looks great, a cozy nook.
A beautifully filmed video and built navigation station! On my old boat, I always felt the happiest and most empowered seating at the chart table.....and Leo, you can still continue to "dead reckon and shoot starts" any time you want! DD
The chart table looks beautiful. The space looks warm and inviting. It will be Leo’s nook so to say for not only navigating but any number of things where he’ll need a desk. Good job Nick.
That's a great looking, very functional, well designed space. Speaking of design, I see all these intricate things being built, but no plans or drawings being followed. This leads me to believe these craftsmen are just making it up as they go !?! It would be great to see how the work is assigned to everybody and how they figure out how to build what they are assigned to make.
Oh my goodness…. This charttable is a masterpiece!!! Can you Imagine, how satisfiying it is to Watch this Build? Love it! Greets from Berlin, Germany❤️
Wow, whatta beautiful chart table ! Me, as an old guy, I am very impressed, by the carpentrywork you youngsters do. I am looking forward to the moment, when she will head out to the open sea.
I was stunned to see Nick putting glue on the outer tenon at 5:20 in the video. It is my understanding that if you going to use any glue on the tenons for a pinned breadboard end, it would be the middle tenon only.
If you put glue on the middle tenon, it will expand in both directions which could effect the hinge connection. Putting glue on just the top most tenon allows the wood to expand away from the hinge. This will ensure the hinge connection always stays nice and tight. Hope that makes sense.
I've been a woodworker (and a guitar player/luthier) since I was old enough to hang on to a hammer, abt 65 years ago. In my early 20's I developed a passion for "dove tails". For abt 5 years every project had to have at least 1 dove tail! LOL My favorite one was a huge "trestle table" I made from recycled mahogany. The trestle was like a "T" upside down. I cut the tail from the bottom of the T, full width, about 2.5 feet! Then I cut the single pin from the cross T, making the foot part on the bottom. To highlight the tail even more, I sprayed a subtle sunburst effect around the tail, then blended it all in. All that resulted in a beautiful, huge ~2.5 foot "dove tail" in the 4 inch thick trestle! After 60 years it is still being enjoyed today!! If you got this far, thanks for reading my dumb story, it is one of my favs!! 8) Peace --gary
12:24 if you buy the floating type clamp (and any shop should have at least four of those, very useful) and glue sand paper (rough) on the floating head of the clamp, you can clamp angled pieces. Learnt this trick from a younger woodworker i worked with recently and it's really effective. Even at some pretty big angles, the sand paper grips and holds. Not as good as having the negative wood block in place (trick) but for just a clamp, it works really well.
Back in the day you'd have to have been a super rich dude to have something like this built. Now it takes a super smart dude, a team of great craftsmen, and the internet. Tallyho is a wonderful thing. Glad I didn't have to grind through all the gruesome parts ya'll did that we'll never see. Excited to see the sailing part start. Well done.
As usual the craftsmanship is second to none. The guys are doing an outstanding job bringing Talle Ho back to life. I agree with you about the navigation, the electronic stuff is good and useful but you need to be able to do it the old school traditional way also. Great backup if you have a total power failure mid ocean so you could still navigate.
@@heidisuedillenbach5394 Leo can you just aggregate all of them into one video, I actually look forward to the ads! I can't say that I have ever done that in the past...
The quality of video production on this episode is top class, Leo has mastered the youtube art form. I hope he can avoid the stale footage that other sailing channels post when underway. Obviously there are significant problems with the confined space of the deck and cabin: Drones, camera booms and shore/companion boat footage appear the only options. I have faith though that Leo will find ways to make sailing as fun and informative as the build. Fixed cams mounted on the mast, spars, bowsprit, boom maybe with a 360 scan and sweep in all dimensions? Not long to go now until Splash Day!

Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
Hi, my name is Leo and I'm building a boat all for me for FREE on other people's dime. I don't have to have a real job and I don't buy a darn thing and I don't even have to pay for labor because everyone works for free! YIPPEE!!!
Such excellent craft skills shown here! Sometimes the humour rather over 'shadows' how skilled this team is, however the results are remarkable, and the sense of humour and sense of engagement are excellent. Leo you have (and have had) such a wonderful crew working on this project. Well done you.
I've noticed the kind of "men" he has working for him all seem a little, erm, limp in the wrist...... Ol' Leo has never been seen with another woman either... Not sure where he lives but he might be keeping his back door open...... 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
After seeing Nick's awesome woodworking, I immediately sent a donation! Thank-you to the whole team for doing such great work and making such an enjoyable series to watch😄
I genuinely don't know what I'm going to do when they finally get this project done and set to sail. I've watched this channel from the early days, and seen the astronomical amount of progression after the internet caught on to how awesome this project was. I'm not one to watch sailing videos, but I think this channel will soon change that.
Graupel during the intro suggests it was shot on Thursday afternoon. The subsequent snow (and ice) is why I'm here in Port Angeles watching this video instead of going to Seattle today.
Leo, every video you make is a bonus video, at least that’s the way I feel about it. Unknown to each of us at the time, myself and all of my siblings started watching your videos near the beginning of this project. Over time we all discovered our mutual interest in Tally Ho and in some small way you have brought us back on a converging course after years of life diverging us. Thank you Leo
I am interjecting with an observation here Leo. The insert in the door at the side of the chart table if to be painted . Has the grain running horizontal and as such not important. If the panel will be varnished? Then the grain runs in contrast to the direction in the rest of the piece, which would be a shame to have it looking so cheap. After all the beautiful workmanship and correctness of this fine vessel this far!

Just a thought. Have you considered getting a thin sheet of perspex to cover the top of the chart table. There are two main benefits - you don't have to worry about divider points of compass point damaging the top and if it is really pouring with rain, you can place the chart under the perspex and avoid water damage to the chart.

Good idea and clearly learned from experience. Charts are waterproof and pencils write on them regardless, but your reflections are really sound. I recall using tracing paper on charts and plotting waypoints and tracks on the tracing paper and taking this to the cockpit etc as a ready tool. Drawing the details and features on the paper reinforced the notable elements and if it got lost etc it didn't matter too much.
That's a good idea!
Great idea!
I ended up doing that exact same thing with the top of my large wooden drafting table; the wood can deform with pencil tip pressure and things like dividers.
In the merchant navy we used to put things under the perspex such as distress procedures, nav warnings, weather forecasts etc.

Back in one of the very ealiest vids that Leo made (I think when he was in Cornwall), he was discussing with a boatbuilder there and the old fella said, it's always simpler and cheaper to start fresh. This would have negated all the fantasitc history.
This is a most complicated verion of Trigger's broom (Ajax's axe for the classically trained) I can imagine!
Leo, I'm kind of a 'Tron' guy (electronics that is) and I'd love to have Joe explain in one of your videos how all the electonics, electrical systems, batteries, radios, radar, GPS, etc. will be protected from such things as lightning! Grounding is extremely important when you have what amounts to thousands of dollars worth of sensitive equipment to protect. I ask because as of yet I haven't seen any mention of Zinc anodes on Tally Ho to protect from the effects of sea water on things like the prop shaft or prop, let alone to provide for a discharge point to ground from what has to be a very tall lightning rod of the mast with all the antennas, nav lights, radar and GPS sitting on top of it. Thank you so much for your consideration of my request.
Leo i've just marathined through your beautiful series in a week.
That goes to show how beautiful and addictive your work and videography is. Keep it up ❤
what a week you must have had
How much sleep haven’t you had
Kind of sad I didn't make it last longer it's going to be hard to find something as good as this to watch.
Yes your right I only now realised how big of a mistake I made. But I guess it wouldn't have been fair on the rest of you guys😂.
I'm ashamed to say I've been watching since around your 10th video, it's been an amazing journey with you Leo, thank you. Ashamed because I've never financially supported you. I was sitting in my shop having a break, surrounded by all my tools, which cost thousands, watching your video and bit the bullet to become a Patron. I'm sorry it took too long. I'm sure there are lots of people watching who are in the same situation. If even 10% join up for the lowest membership, it means so much for Tally Ho.
thank you so much Leo and all of your amazing friends!
I am an amateur but advanced woodworker who honed his skills on a perfectly square 115 year old craftsman home whose design theme was square. Seeing the craftsmanship on this level applied to something that has nothing square is like watching the superbowl.
The skill and patience your team displays is always impressive. Can't wait to see the end result!
You always keep your cordless drill in a cubby under the chart table because that's the way the ancient Romans did it. 😊
I mean, if the ship needs one more hole in the hull... like right now, this is the only logical place.
Ya gotta respect tradition on a traditional boat, mate.
@@inyobill _Good enough for Nelson ... .._
and don't the essential life boat drill......
Gotta keep the drill safe below decks. It's one thing to have a man overboard drill, and quite another to have a drill overboard, man.
As a long time woodworker, I am always impressed by Nick's first class craftsmanship! That chart table is not only beautiful but functional as well. As a continued supporter of this amazing project, I always look forward to your videos Leo. Cheers & Tally Ho! 👍👍
Thanks!
A fun fact, the music that starts playing at 12:10 is Puerto Rican, It is called "Plena", it ends at 13:21. It is a very danceable rhythm here in the island. It feels nice that the editor of this video liked it and decided to add it in the video.
I was really enjoying the music this episode, so thank you for commenting the name of it!
LOVE how the rhythm of tapping in the T&G matched the jazz bass line. You never let us down!
Nick’s skill is something I could watch for hours. He makes it look so easy, as if assembling an IKEA piece. 😊
he's going to be snapped up when this is done for sure
Thanks, y’all!
1:19 I LOVE how MUSICAL all the workers are! They are always hammering or tapping to the rhythm of the music! SO talented!!
Having lived in a landlocked state all my life, I know nothing of sailing, the sea, or maritime life. Leo, your restoration of Tally Ho project has absolutely held me in awe since the get go. I will probably never be able to see Tally Ho in person, but I am enjoying watching you and your team. I compare all you guy's skills to the technicians that build Bentleys across the pond. Fantastic work. Thank you.
Hoping there is eventually a movie made from all of this!
Just join all the videos together!
I'd like to hope that netflix could make a mini-series . . .
. . . ideally without the need of a sacrificial murder.
It would make a great PBS series
What ALL you folks said.
Actually, now I come to think about this, Leo could more or less do that if he joined Nebula and published multi-episode versions of his videos. Still a lot of work, but doable.
I think i watched Nick at 1:19, hammer in that last tongue and groove wall piece about 15 times. Matching the hammer strokes with the music made my day.
Moin from northern Germany(Dithmarschen), I'am rebuilding a 1880 Farmhouse, and the only reason i'm playing Lotto is to: Hiring craftmans like Nick...
If i have not made it by myself, the work is not made correct (and often even than, it is not)
So, in the mean time I'am waiting every week to join these man.
Leo and his crew => unbelievable quality and craftmanship.
My english is bad and i have celebrated this video, so excuse me...
Such an extraordinary odyssey of a man pursuing his dream. I just hope that leo maintains ownership of Talley-ho, it would be a crying shame for fundding issues seeing this beautiful yacht being sold off to an individual or corporation that didn't understand the amazing back-story behind Leo's vision. I too would love to see a 'where are they now' episode. There have been some amazing characters involved over the years, that have simply 'vanished' from the project
This project is giving so many good ideas on how to build my solar powered steel reinforced brick chicken coup.
With ribs of oak and sails of white,
in our dreams She cuts the waves, a vision bright.
The Tally Ho, a legend reborn,
From ashes past, to future sworn .

When Nick said he was going to assemble with dove tails I thought he would use a machine to do the job, but no all beautifully hand crafted and perfect. This fella will never be out of a job. Well done Nick.
There’s only one way to cut dovetails 😉
Nick's woodwork skills are first class! 👍
Increased my Pateron today - to fund a sou'wester so you can look truly miserable in the cold months to come. Seriously - This rebuild/project is one of the most happy places I have on the internet. Thank you!
Nick, the finest of artisans ❤
Hey, thanks!
Whenever it gets close to launch, I hope you buy another boat to rebuild, and have one crew documenting Tally Ho’s seafaring, and another sharing the next rebuild. Magical stuff.
There's this rather complex equation which determines when you should move the router or the piece. It has to do with the thickness of the piece in correlation to the skin on your fingertips, and the weight of the piece divided by the weight of the router times the weight of your balls. Minus the distance between your eyeballs and your safety glasses. The number you get from this gets added to your IQ number, and that number gets divided by the monthly insurance payment. Then you measure the distance between your work station and the First-Aid kit and subtract that form the first number. If the result is negative, you need a shorter distance to the First-Aid kit, or heavier balls.
All professionally calculated in a fraction of a second...😂
Luckily my IQ is low and I don’t pay for insurance. So, I can do whatever the hell I want
LoL. So well written ... thanks for posting Oikkuoek.
@@davelcx1958 👍
Lol! 😂
These young cabinet makers on this project continue to amaze me. Beautiful dovetails. Extremely talented.
She is gorgeous inside and out! You guys and gals have put so much attention to detail into her that it is as much a work of art as it is a functional vessel.
I could watch @Sampson Boat Co just for the music🕺 But it must be said, the woodworks is fantastic.
Omg get it in the water stop pissin about
@@aileenconnett7146 Its how I feel sometimes. Been watching for more than a year now!
One thought, A small hinged prop rod inside the chart table to set it at a level position. Never know when you'll want to eat your soup while deciding your next course.
Good shout and maybe something to hold it fully open (but off the screen). I'm sure they'll do both.
01:19 another signature Leo music sync between Nick's mallet and the running bass line 🤌
So good
Amazing work Nic - really outstanding; bravo! And: regarding Leo’s passion for traditional, celestial navigation:
“I know the stars are my home. I learned about them, needed them for survival in terms of navigation. I know where I am when I look up at the sky. I know where I am when I look up at the Moon; it's not just some abstract romantic idea, it's something very real to me. See, I've expanded my home.”
- Astronaut/Moon-walker Gene Cernan
Funny, at 13:15 when Nick used the hand router as a table router, I thought, "Would I have done it like that?" Then I thought, heck Nick has made more chips than I ever have, I'll defer to his judgement on routing a small, light-weight piece like that door. Then Nick stated that the internet would yell at him for that technique... No worries, Nick! Very nicely done! You are a great craftsman.
The secret is that I have no idea what i’m doing
@@NicTaylorWoodworking Could have fooled me. I also figured if Nick's doing it, it's probably ok. Just a quick note though, I do hope you're hiding that gorgeous hair under a cap when working with power tools though, I've seen scalping done in an instant of carelessness, don't let that be you.
I've run out of superlatives over the work you guys produce. Suffice it to say, my gob has never been more smacked! 😁
The quality of filmmaking is astonishing.
The YT explaining and presenting skills of the whole team have increased so much over time 👍🏻 a year ago or so it sometimes seemed like „Bro, just let me work…“, now it seems that the team enjoys sharing and showing the audience what goes into a project like that. Great to see! I see some of them have started their own channel already, which I think is great!
Workmanship 120%, entertainment 150%. Thanks so much for the bonus video 👏👏👏👏
i have been waiting for this part for years, i'm so happy the chart table is getting put in
What a great piece of craftsmanship from the shipwright with nail polish ;) Nice to see that the younger generation is still interested in real craftsmanship!
always good to see Pancho out for a visit!
I was struggling to recall his name. Glad to see him amongst the activity.
No one who hand-cuts beautiful dovetails should be criticized for how he chooses to use a router. Amazing work.
I think you should add some radius to the bottom edge of the chart drawer under the table! Your shin would appreciate it! :)
I was thinking that as well, but I'm not sitting there.
As always, worthy of an Emmy, Golden Globe or Oscar. Thank you for enlightening and making any of us better woodworkers.
It’s simply a pleasure to watch such beautiful craftsmanship come together.
The area next to the chart table is perfect for what we called in Sea Scouts, Flippys and Tweezys. Most call them parallel rules and dividers.
Chart table looks great, a cozy nook.
A beautifully filmed video and built navigation station! On my old boat, I always felt the happiest and most empowered seating at the chart table.....and Leo, you can still continue to "dead reckon and shoot starts" any time you want! DD
The chart table looks beautiful. The space looks warm and inviting. It will be Leo’s nook so to say for not only navigating but any number of things where he’ll need a desk. Good job Nick.
Much respect for the handmade dovetails 🙌
Love some dovetails
That's a great looking, very functional, well designed space. Speaking of design, I see all these intricate things being built, but no plans or drawings being followed. This leads me to believe these craftsmen are just making it up as they go !?! It would be great to see how the work is assigned to everybody and how they figure out how to build what they are assigned to make.
That Nick is an amazing woodworker!
Thanks!
1:20 Nice, the hammering is on beat, that can't be a coincidence!
Oh my goodness…. This charttable is a masterpiece!!! Can you Imagine, how satisfiying it is to Watch this Build? Love it! Greets from Berlin, Germany❤️
One of my best and most useful school subjects was woodwork. I never produced dovetail joints a beautiful as I have just seen!
Chart table/manicure/navigation looks great!
Wow, whatta beautiful chart table !
Me, as an old guy, I am very impressed, by the carpentrywork you youngsters do.
I am looking forward to the moment, when she will head out to the open sea.
Another beautiful piece of furniture. Well done Nick.
I was stunned to see Nick putting glue on the outer tenon at 5:20 in the video. It is my understanding that if you going to use any glue on the tenons for a pinned breadboard end, it would be the middle tenon only.
If you put glue on the middle tenon, it will expand in both directions which could effect the hinge connection. Putting glue on just the top most tenon allows the wood to expand away from the hinge. This will ensure the hinge connection always stays nice and tight. Hope that makes sense.
What a beautiful piece of art Leo, and functional too!
I've been a woodworker (and a guitar player/luthier) since I was old enough to hang on to a hammer, abt 65 years ago. In my early 20's I developed a passion for "dove tails". For abt 5 years every project had to have at least 1 dove tail! LOL My favorite one was a huge "trestle table" I made from recycled mahogany. The trestle was like a "T" upside down. I cut the tail from the bottom of the T, full width, about 2.5 feet! Then I cut the single pin from the cross T, making the foot part on the bottom. To highlight the tail even more, I sprayed a subtle sunburst effect around the tail, then blended it all in. All that resulted in a beautiful, huge ~2.5 foot "dove tail" in the 4 inch thick trestle! After 60 years it is still being enjoyed today!! If you got this far, thanks for reading my dumb story, it is one of my favs!! 8) Peace --gary
You need a drill on a boat for when there is water in the bottom, this allows you to drill a hole through the bottom to let the water drain out.
You can also use it for a man overboard drill, a fire drill, the list is endless.
12:24 if you buy the floating type clamp (and any shop should have at least four of those, very useful) and glue sand paper (rough) on the floating head of the clamp, you can clamp angled pieces. Learnt this trick from a younger woodworker i worked with recently and it's really effective. Even at some pretty big angles, the sand paper grips and holds. Not as good as having the negative wood block in place (trick) but for just a clamp, it works really well.
Back in the day you'd have to have been a super rich dude to have something like this built. Now it takes a super smart dude, a team of great craftsmen, and the internet.
Tallyho is a wonderful thing. Glad I didn't have to grind through all the gruesome parts ya'll did that we'll never see. Excited to see the sailing part start.
Well done.
As usual the craftsmanship is second to none. The guys are doing an outstanding job bringing Talle Ho back to life. I agree with you about the navigation, the electronic stuff is good and useful but you need to be able to do it the old school traditional way also. Great backup if you have a total power failure mid ocean so you could still navigate.
Thanks for the update! Very interesting as usual.
Always a pleasure to watch a professional hand cutting dovetails
Week 37 of asking for a full episode of Dutchess of Desire
Yes this!
@@heidisuedillenbach5394 Leo can you just aggregate all of them into one video, I actually look forward to the ads! I can't say that I have ever done that in the past...
The quality of video production on this episode is top class, Leo has mastered the youtube art form. I hope he can avoid the stale footage that other sailing channels post when underway.
Obviously there are significant problems with the confined space of the deck and cabin: Drones, camera booms and shore/companion boat footage appear the only options. I have faith though that Leo will find ways to make sailing as fun and informative as the build.
Fixed cams mounted on the mast, spars, bowsprit, boom maybe with a 360 scan and sweep in all dimensions?
Not long to go now until Splash Day!
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
I'm not paying £7.20 per night, plus VAT, for a room without a bath!
Holy John Cleese!! A little Faulty Towers to brighten the day.
@@johngiromini5745 I JUST SIGN MELBURY !
The dovetails look amazing with the roundover, impressed as usual
Hi, my name is Leo and I'm building a boat all for me for FREE on other people's dime. I don't have to have a real job and I don't buy a darn thing and I don't even have to pay for labor because everyone works for free! YIPPEE!!!
Not true !
@@on4xb Um, yes, actually, it is true.
Such excellent craft skills shown here! Sometimes the humour rather over 'shadows' how skilled this team is, however the results are remarkable, and the sense of humour and sense of engagement are excellent. Leo you have (and have had) such a wonderful crew working on this project. Well done you.
Whats with the dude with the funny fingernails?
I've noticed the kind of "men" he has working for him all seem a little, erm, limp in the wrist...... Ol' Leo has never been seen with another woman either... Not sure where he lives but he might be keeping his back door open...... 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
After seeing Nick's awesome woodworking, I immediately sent a donation! Thank-you to the whole team for doing such great work and making such an enjoyable series to watch😄
I genuinely don't know what I'm going to do when they finally get this project done and set to sail. I've watched this channel from the early days, and seen the astronomical amount of progression after the internet caught on to how awesome this project was. I'm not one to watch sailing videos, but I think this channel will soon change that.
I am hoping you tube will take us along the anticipated sailing adventures 🙂
@SampsonBoat--Co1 everybody that gets a reply from this channel should report it for impersonating.
Graupel during the intro suggests it was shot on Thursday afternoon. The subsequent snow (and ice) is why I'm here in Port Angeles watching this video instead of going to Seattle today.
Nic da Vinci, totally underestimated. This is one of the best episodes ever! Fine Arts.
Thanks for the kind words!
Leo, every video you make is a bonus video, at least that’s the way I feel about it.
Unknown to each of us at the time, myself and all of my siblings started watching your videos near the beginning of this project. Over time we all discovered our mutual interest in Tally Ho and in some small way you have brought us back on a converging course after years of life diverging us.
Thank you Leo
Oh that Cherry wood, and Nick woodworking. Just wow.
THAT ROUTER
Love cherry!
That dovetail joint (2:41) - perfection.
Oh my. This is just one project I'm so happy to help out funding.
I love the pride of young men making beautiful things !
this episode is not short for me.. i pause the video and stare for a minute on each single shot of that table. just stunning design and work!
Always good to have a drill on a boat. In case you get a hole and water comes in, you drill another one to let the water out.
I am interjecting with an observation here Leo. The insert in the door at the side of the chart table if to be painted . Has the grain running horizontal and as such not important. If the panel will be varnished? Then the grain runs in contrast to the direction in the rest of the piece, which would be a shame to have it looking so cheap. After all the beautiful workmanship and correctness of this fine vessel this far!
The workmanship,it's all been said, I'm just endorsing all of 'em ! Fabulous.
