found a hull on built and prepped at Salvation Army 5$, and for my grandson my first boat , sails were a disaster lots of stitching but in the end what a blast, my dremel saw worked great, looking forward to bldg another soon, love the videos,, Vancouver Island 70 yrs old.
Thank you for your build video. So interesting and i guess so satisfying for you to to follow Gary's plans. I see this as a pre-amble to everyone learning skills to tackle other boats which are more complex. Congratulations!!
Amazing! Truly so. I wouldn't have expected such a lengthy production to be so interesting, but it was, and more. A must watch for any Bearospace boat builder.
Your not the first one to say that. If it is any comfort the motor blew up and I got a better scroll saw and I got tired of that one and not only use a small band saw. But - even that is not anchored down!
Me quito el sobrero Señor muy buen trabajo me apunto muchos detalles y a mi si me gusto la música gracias a usted y otros como usted empezar con Irene me resulta cada vez mas sencillo gracis
Not by me. Anyway when you scale a boat you have to change the design significantly. Thanks for watching. Working on another sailboat and will release the video in a month or two or three.
Hey Kay, not sure when your next build is, but I enjoyed watching your video of the Emma. I'm currently building one, and it was good to see the process. I'm not super far into it, but I'm using plywood from home depot as well that was actually too thick. I could only find 5.2 mm, which is about double what Gary at bearospace recommends. Turns out, the 5.2 mm birch plywood from home depot does really well in a planer, and it seems to be pretty rugged stuff. I'll let you know how it goes when I finish accumulating materials and start building. Really like the wood so far though, thought you might like to try it. Anyway! My comment is plenty long, so I'll leave it at that!

As I'm preparing to build a homemade wooden RC sailboat myself, I enjoyed your video and got some good tips that will come in handy on my project. One thing though... may I ask why you didn't secure your scroll saw to the work surface in some fashion?
Your not the first person to comment on that. Just lazy and it was easier to move around. It actually blew up during the video and I changed to another scroll saw and eventually sold that one. At present I have no scroll saw, but a small band saw - which also is not secured to the bench.
I have the plan printed now and ca't wait to hear all your various tips like using the carbon paper, I just started to watch the vid. Great video, fun watching you use the bench saw, really seems to me THE tool to have for this particular project. Bad luck with the plywood side, I imagine you just made a new one?
Thanks for making this video! What other tools would you say were a must other than the band saw? What glue did you use instead of the hot glue? I'm giving you 2 bonus points for the shirt 14:33-16:20! ;)
Well - it is tough to cut inside pieces without a jig saw - but I intend to do so on my next boat. I used mostly 2 part epoxy and CA. Thanks for watching.
Very detailed Video. Can you please tell me which glue you used to stick the paper templates on the plywood. Also I am interested in which thickness of plywood you used for the hull. I bought the plan from Gary but there is just written door skin plywood. Greetings from Austria
I used rubber cement - but that was a big mistake. I spent hours later hand rubbing it off the wood. On my next boat I used double sided scotch tape. Much nicer. The plywood was the only this stuff home dopot had and I believe it is called door skin plywood. Terrible stuff. It looks like 3 layers but the inside layer is crap and the outside layers are as this as paper. My first attempt at bending the sides of the hull around failed = one of the door skin pieces broke. I would never use it again if I could fine something better. Looks like around here (Arizona) you would have to mail order to get proper thin plywood. I fiberglassed over the hull so I don't worry about the crap plywood. Thanks for viewing the video.
Hi. Lovely boat. Can you tell me we're I can get the plans. I've spent days looking on the net but gave up. My nephew wants me to upgrade the first one I built for him to this one,hope someone can help. Many thanks, Paul from Cornwall England
Looking real nice, Have watched all your Emma videos, like them . I myselfe is building Irene and realy longing to splash here, greatings from sweden :) ...i have belled
That scroll saw blew up during the video. It has been replaced twice since then. I recently sold my last one and am now only using a band saw for most cuts. Thanks for watching.
I also used two part equal mix stuff I got from the local grocery store. But I also used Bondo Fiberglass resin from Walmart for the frames in the hull and for glassing the outside of the hull. But I have to say I made a real mess of it. Fortunately it is inside the hull so you can't see. I failed at making nice looking fillets.
Want to ask you for your opinion - do you think that the coverage with fiberglass and epoxy is necessary? Do you see any disadvantage in using just plain Boat paint? Best regards Alexander
Frankly I do. Fiberglass adds a ton of strength. I would worry about a small puncture with just wood and paint. I also installed foam inside incase of a flood.
i am about to build Emma What type plywood did you use for the hull ?? ....I checked to see if my Home builders supply still carried Luan but no such luck Guess i could mail order in some 1/8 ply from Aircraft Supply Any way Great video
I used door skin plywood from home depot and it was terrible stuff. Basically 1 ply with the top and bottom covered with a super thin ply about the thickness of CHEAP paper. I hope never to use that stuff again but couldn't find anything thin at home depot or lowes.
@@MrKayFisher guess its good that i could not locate the Luan lol Where did you get your aluminum for the keel ? That is also on my list to get Tks for your input
2.5 months. But I only worked an hour or 3 each day. There was a lot of things like put on some epoxy and don't touch it till the next day kinds of things and I was in no hurry. Thanks for watching.
I really wanted to watch, but I only got through the video after I turned the sound completely off. Think of background music as the salt in a dish. It should enhance the taste, not overwhelm the meal. Love your work otherwise!
It blew up during the build. I now have a Porter Cable on a stand. But as big as it is it vibrates something awfull and is not something I look forward to using.

Congratulations on the build, nice work.
It takes a huge effort to build AND film so you've done a great job. I'm just building - that's quite enough!
Wonderful. Thanks for sharing. This will be useful. I've just printed the plans - my journey begins!

A nice and very descriptive video on building the Emma. I am willing to start mine. Thank you a lot from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Thank you
Just got some plans yesterday, Great to see what's ahead. An entire build!! Love the music too !
Thank you.
Love the way you made those blocks!
Thank you
Your dancing as well! I like the detail, great job looks good.
Thank you. The scroll saw has been replaced - twice. The plans come from www.bearospaceindustries.com/boats2.html
Great in depth video
Wow this is amasing! Great video!
Thank you for going in to such detail with your video. I really enjoyed it and look forward to building this with my kid.
Thank you
Great father and son (or daughter) project.
Brilliant but I wish you had made a jig to clamp that scrollsaw to the bench to stop it dancing around
Your not the first one to say that. If it is any comfort the motor blew up and I got a better scroll saw and I got tired of that one and not only use a small band saw. But - even that is not anchored down!
WOW....AWESOME and really beautiful . Thankyou.
Thank you
Great job. I always been planning to build one myself
Thank you.
Great job!
Belo trabalho, me expirou a fazer um obrigado
Me quito el sobrero Señor muy buen trabajo me apunto muchos detalles y a mi si me gusto la música gracias a usted y otros como usted empezar con Irene me resulta cada vez mas sencillo gracis
Gracias compadre
so with this model ,its posible to going up in scale and build an 30feet boat,,? and seiling around the world ?
Not by me. Anyway when you scale a boat you have to change the design significantly. Thanks for watching. Working on another sailboat and will release the video in a month or two or three.

Yes I did. Since this video I purchased the cheapest little band saw I could find and use it more than any other tool.
Thanks for making this video!
What other tools would you say were a must other than the band saw?
What glue did you use instead of the hot glue?

Thank you.
Thank you for this, I learned a lot. Also, please put a rubber mat under that skillsaw!
That scroll saw blew up during the video. It has been replaced twice since then. I recently sold my last one and am now only using a band saw for most cuts. Thanks for watching.
Hi, Great video. I was wondering what epoxy your using. I have "equal part" type but the one your using looks like resin and a smaller hardener.
I also used two part equal mix stuff I got from the local grocery store. But I also used Bondo Fiberglass resin from Walmart for the frames in the hull and for glassing the outside of the hull. But I have to say I made a real mess of it. Fortunately it is inside the hull so you can't see. I failed at making nice looking fillets.
Thanks for the info. I will try to find a similar "Bondo" like product in Australia.
Want to ask you for your opinion - do you think that the coverage with fiberglass and epoxy is necessary? Do you see any disadvantage in using just plain Boat paint?
Best regards
Alexander
Frankly I do. Fiberglass adds a ton of strength. I would worry about a small puncture with just wood and paint. I also installed foam inside incase of a flood.
i wander if it would be possible to have something self tacking so you wouldn't need the servos and blocks
Maybe but I have no idea how you would do that. Thanks for watching.
This was a great build video as well as an eye opener! Not as easy as the prints look. Lol
i am about to build Emma What type plywood did you use for the hull ?? ....I checked to see if my Home builders supply still carried Luan but no such luck Guess i could mail order in some 1/8 ply from Aircraft Supply Any way Great video

2.5 months. But I only worked an hour or 3 each day. There was a lot of things like put on some epoxy and don't touch it till the next day kinds of things and I was in no hurry. Thanks for watching.
Many thanks Kay! Am itching to start cutting wood this week.
Where did you get your plans? Your scroll saw likes to dance to the music.
The plans come from www.bearospaceindustries.com/boats2.html
where can i get this plans? thanks

Thanks for watching
Non-skid mat under the saw?
Yes - I know. I have replaced it with a floor mount unit. Thanks for watching.
I really wanted to watch, but I only got through the video after I turned the sound completely off. Think of background music as the salt in a dish. It should enhance the taste, not overwhelm the meal. Love your work otherwise!
Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to do better with sound choices.
nice video but! jigsaw is very dangerous..needs to clamp it down tight ..not safe
It blew up during the build. I now have a Porter Cable on a stand. But as big as it is it vibrates something awfull and is not something I look forward to using.
@@MrKayFisher you still build model boat sir?
@@hellno4234 Yes
For cryjng out loud stop that noise
Awful music makes it unwatchable
Pointless music is deafening. Compared to commentary. I'm out.
I'll try to do better - I'm new at this.
