    Rebuilding the coachroof.
    In this episode i begin the process of rebuilding the coachroof, starting with the machining of the three Iroko boards i have, ready to start marking out for the new superstructure.
    We meet the mysterious lurker that has been spotted in the workshop.
    Then moving onto cutting the required rebates to enable bedding timber onto deckbeams and deck.
    Massive shout out to Mark Thorne for recording some great music for this video.
    You can find more of Mark and his band's material in the link below:

    Well, Finn, Sounds like you are blessed man to have a decent boss that allows you to use his equipment to plane and cut your boards. Been enjoying this rebuild Fin keep them videos coming brother. Your a lucky man to have a girl willing to pick up the tools. That's called a keeper buddy.

    Finn, you are a very fortunate man to have Liz all to yourself! She is lovely and I for one look forward to seeing more of her.
    The boat is coming along nicely with your master's touch! Q. Are you happy with the interior layout as it is or do you want to make changes? If you do, a word of advice from someone who has learned the truth the hard way. When it comes down to the galley layout take the advice of She Who Knows about such things! Liz will be possessed of The Wisdom that we men are so often found wanting of. Believe me, I know! 😂

    It's funny, Finn. When you were with Leo on Tally Ho I could tell you had some kind of background in wood working and a good grasp of the process but I must say that you are really doing an amazing job with your own project. Your skill level is far higher than I would have guessed. You really have something special going on. The production quality is much improved as well. And you have a pretty cool girl friend there. I love it when the girls don't mind getting their hands dirty.
    Keep up the progress.
    Cheers from Southern California.

    Finn another enjoyable upload, a handy tip for helping hold big timbers on edge is to use a short 4x2 half checked wider than plank and put under
    plank and tap a wedge in to lock in place while you work on the timber. You may need two blocks, great to see your boss let you use his machines.

      @Robert Vial And yet you watch it. And comment on it. Adversely. Why? I and thousands of subscribers think he's great and I actually like the spin off from Leo. If Pete or Rosie started their own channels I'd watch them too. Or are you saying there should be some sort of restrictive covenant in place for fear of being called freeloaders? Weird.

    • @moonshine3333
      @moonshine3333 3 года назад

      @Robert Vial This seems to be a bizarre collection of unrelated or illogical statements. You saw Finn start his so-called spin off. But it died a death. It was going nowhere. No vision. "This will end the same" ??? What will end the same? Something that has already died a death except it's still going ??? Then one episode was enough for you on a rerun of his. Who? Finn? A rerun? What, something that died a death? But is going to end the same? As what? And you're still commenting on a dead thing or is it something that IS going to end the same? I don't think that joined up thinking is your forte.Just vitriol.

I loved to watch her giggling because it's extremely important to let live ones inner child as an adult. Reminds me a bit of Francesca from Leo Gooldens channel. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
