Thanks Gary for teaching me how to solve common building problems, and with quality and fines
Thanks Gary for all the time devoted to videos which are very helpfull. I love the simplicity and efficiency of the designs which demonstrates a lot your seamanship. Last your humor and poetry give to the boats kind of alife soul !!!
Great video. Gary, you are my idol and I choose to build your boats ( just started with Emma) with hand tools - SO relaxing!
Glad to see more videos
You are doing a great contribution to my fav hobby, thank you for that
Nice work!
Great tips! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques : )
These videos are so relaxing, i've yet to build my own rc sailboat but I definitely want to get into after watching all these videos!
Hi Gary, great video! Thanks for the help, I am close to attaching the hatch lids on my gaff rigged ‘Irene’ and the ‘plug-in pins’ will be a fab addition. Your videos are always really interesting and great fun, keep them coming! G
Tapering masts and spars is easy. Chuck one end in drill and a pointed end nail sticking out sticking out of vise or a piece of wood. Push the spar against nail and turn on drill holding with one hand. With other hand roll the sandpaper around spar and hold. You just created crude lathe. Might have taken me 30 minutes to do all mine for Emma.
Pure unintentional asmr
Another wonderful video...and the timing is perfect! I was just at the point of thinking about hatch covers for “Emma”. Your craftsmanship is inspiring. Many thanks!
Hi Gary, can you please make a video on the Skiff and/or Dory that is on Irene? I plan on putting them on my enlarged Annie...
Keep up your wonderful work - regards from a cold South Africa.

Hallo, from germany! Great work, like your videos very much! ✨🛠️👍
您是一位值得尊敬的创作者，从您的网站购买了您的三条船的电子图，希望能尽快制作一条出来。。。谢谢您的设计和视频分享，向您表示敬意！Love from China。
Another very useful video Gary. All your videos are much appreciated.
What superglue do you use? The stuff I've got doesn't work well on wood.
Best wishes,
Noel
Hi Noel, I have used various superglues, I find a medium viscosity works best for me. Some are very thin which is sometimes useful, others are rather thick which I find no use for. Hobby suppliers are probably the best source. The glue you see a glimpse of in this video was 'Loctite' brand from an auto parts store. I liked it well enough, and found it here in Mexico where hobby supplies are not available.
@@sailtails2775 Thanks Gary!
Love these video's! Almost never see video's about people making scratch built model boats, glad I'm a subscriber!
One question I do have: Do you leave the holes for the pins untreated, or do you put in a drop of CA to keep moisture from making it's way into the wood?
I drill the holes before painting or varnishing and I imagine some paint may find its way into the wood. I pass the drill thru the holes again after painting and don't really do anything more about treating the holes. That said, I imagine it would be good to saturate the area with super thin CA after the initial drilling.
@@sailtails2775 Thanks for your reply! Thin CA is amazing stuff, especially suited to treating the butt ends of wood. It really strengthens the wood grain and makes it easier to sand also. Please keep those fantastic video's comin'!
Hi Gary.
Love your RUclips sites most useful. I am building building your Flyer at the moment, getting on great. I will be ready soon for the painting but I would to know what colour you used for the cabin top and deck, I would prefer this colour instead of wood stain?
Hello Gary,
Thanks for the great instructional video!! Your model are world class! How do you find time to build model sailboats and keep up a full size sailboat?
I've been restoring and d Cutter for the last year, making headway but she is a huge project!! I don't have time for much else these days!!
Fair winds Gary, keep up the great work!
Find time? Easy, I just keep adding to my "TO DO" list !
👍 👍 👍

Thank you for making these videos. They are a great inspiration for me. I am planning on buying a pre-made model boat from ebay and fitting it with rc components and 3d printed keel, is there any way I can make sure the wood is impermeable to water?
I seal the bare wood with clear penetrating epoxy sealer before painting, and paint with brushed on oil based enamels.
Not your fault, but my hearing is not the greatest anymore. That means I have to turn on the Captions or the "CC".
Some of the captions quite frequently do not reflect what you are saying, Gary. Example "100 grit sandpaper" becomes "100 yards sandpaper"
Is this a google problem, or something you have control over?
Thanks Richard for the input. I understand about hearing, mine also is not up to par. I have also had some technical difficulties producing clear audio which might be a factor in the google CC captions. I suppose I should add my own captions along with audio when editing the videos. Will try to do so in the future.
Can I buy one from you? Thanks, Shan
