    Mrs Rover is a Saint. It's really great to see your motivation to get it done even with temperature adversity. Putting the plank on the side gave great visual of a great looking cabin. And the tips to stop wood skating while gluing, super handy.

      I know what you mean. And when I put the sides on for the first time it was a really fantastic moment for me. It really has a beautiful shape. Not boxy like a lot of small home built boats.

    On a more serious note, hope this severe cold snap passes you by unscathed, and all those chemicals stay healthy. I was wondering, if people were to follow in your footsteps, would a taller piece of wood (not sure what you call it - top inside edge re-enforcer, opposite to where a rubbing strake would be) with a rebate to bed the ply into have been an option?

    • @RoversAdventure
      @RoversAdventure  Год назад

      Absolutely, but that would still require some challenging shaping. The hull and cabin sides have an angle change at that point.

    Connecting the pine to the shear of the boat was a really tricky part of the build. I can see why getting an ideal solution needed a bit more consideration than other parts of the build. The scarf join for the join in the two pieces is under a bit more shear stress, did you need to reinforce it at all? I know you considered pinning it.

    • @RoversAdventure
      @RoversAdventure  Год назад +3

      As I'll demonstrate in the next weeks video, the scarf joint is stronger than the wood.

      My original idea was to leave the cabin top off for better light and room to work. But weather considerations and schedule may mean adapting the plan. I'm not quite there yet but "to adapt and overcome" is the motto for this build.
