Me again my friend.. Finally made time to watch this. First: Congratulations on winning the contest. That was a beautiful pairing of music and film. There could have been no other winner. Second: The boat, that was epic. I laughed 'cause I've been there many times my self, I held my head in my hands 'cause the stress and frustration was unbearable. The router trick, terrifying. The kerfing saw technique, exactly right. I can't imagine what the Sapele layer is going to be like. Soooo difficult. Soldier on wood-warrior...
Thank you for videoing this work. While watching this episode, I got an idea for you. I don't know what they are called, but hospitals have a device which rolls around the room and supports your meal tray in your hospital bed. I am suggesting a "C" shaped device which rolls around your shop - giving you a place to put tools and supplies just where you need them. [The horizontal lower support on wheels rolls under the boat. The horizontal upper section carries the tools, etc. The vertical section raises and lowers to put the tray at the height which is most useful to you.]
Congratulations on your win !!, that video was an awesome match and I really felt their video was awesome too,(they can really make that banjo pop). Watched it three times,😆😎🎩👍
@@Nomadboatbuilding we never know how some odd event will lead us into something we enjoy in life. Music has been a big part of my life but I can’t carry a tune myself, read music or play an instrument, but would love to build instruments. Setup is a big part of building and that being, I’ll leave it to you and others. Things Will change and you will make it to that workshop soon. Happy for you that you can make it happen. Loved the shot in the video of the passing of the glass on the oar between two friends. 👍😎
In hind sight would you consider laying the strips toward the transom more vertically to avoid so much warp in the twist, and then revert to the sloped planking forward and aft of the tuck area? Congrats on the music vid, such great footage and music match
First! hah. Admire your workmanship and dedication towards your craft. Is it possible to build a boat using strip planking method like you're doing but using flexible plywood? The standard thicknesses it comes in are 0.8mm, 1.5mm and so on. These flexible plywoods also comes in different grain direction.
Yes you could use plywood and some people do but the short grain would be wasted, adding nothing but weight and thickness. I also considered vacuum bagging but I have no experience with that and didn’t want this to be my first time trying. I would have also needed to make the mould different to allow for a good seal. I’m considering using it for the deck though.
@@Nomadboatbuilding The flexible plywood is a single ply just like veneer. Therefore all the grain run in a single direction. Since I come from engineering background, your method reminded me of Herman Miller's Eames chair. But those chairs are manufactured in a mold press. Hence, the only solution I came up with after a bit of research is to use vacuum bagging with thin single ply flexible plywood. Here you would hold the strip in shape while the bag is pulling vacuum. Once the bag is tight you'll get the shape set in.
make your bending iron portable or a second one where you can apply heat and pressure where you need it. thinking like a rolling pin in a bent figure 8 frame
Just curious, have you followed along with tinyurl.com/y5fbc4ct 's project the Tally Ho..? As you are a boat builder, I thought it might be of interest to you.. It's a hell of a build!
@@brianrobertson6475 I believe he got that idea from "Tips from a Shipwright". I would build one myself but I just don't do any carvel planking very often.
Tool chandelier. Don't know if this idea is any use to you, from RUclipsr Krtwood. ruclips.net/video/C5B92uryWY0/видео.html . She's looking good. keep well and stay safe.

Brian Robertson thanks for the encouragement.
congrats on your Win Mark! great job paring that old video with the Banjo music, it's a perfect match. no wonder you won.

I would do that in a heartbeat but the shop is so small I would be tripping over it constantly. The camera tripod is already doing that job.
fantastic music video you deserve the win
Thanks Bruno.
Great video. If there wasn’t so much smoke here in Spokane, Wa, I’d be loading up my kayaks and camping gear.
Thankfully there’s none around here in Victoria yet. Even had a little splash of rain this morning.

Yes, I love his playing. I was supposed to take a weeklong banjo workshop with Jason this last summer before everything got cancelled.

Yup. My father in law looked like the most satisfied man in the world in that final shot.
Great job on this. Seriously.
Thanks Wes.
Mark you are the Norm Abram of small boat building
High praise indeed. Although, not fully funded by a tool company. Personally, I’m more of a Roy Underhill fan. Thank you just the same.

Maybe so. I would probably go with thinner/ narrower planking on that first layer too.

Way to nail it!
@@Nomadboatbuilding If I'm using thin flexible wood ply then i'll prefer using the vacuum bagging method.

Looking forward to hear your original music in your vidz from now on. :)
Wish I had the chops to do that.

Have you thought of soraying water on the planks then hitting the planks with a heat gun to soften them and then they might set in shape?
I've tried pretty much everything.
young denis.. awwesome
He wasn’t all that young at the time. About 45 if I recall.
What's a mR?
It’s short for metre.
@@Nomadboatbuilding I feared as much.

Yup. Tried to swing by for a visit some time ago bug Leo was out of town.
@@Nomadboatbuilding Oh! BTW, utter madness.. the "rolling bevel circular saw". Now THAT'S a modification!
@@brianrobertson6475 I believe he got that idea from "Tips from a Shipwright". I would build one myself but I just don't do any carvel planking very often.
@@Nomadboatbuilding yeah he mentions his idea source.. Still cool though. Not a boatbuilder myself, but always interested in madscience...

I love the concept but I would brain myself twenty times a day on something like that. No hairdar.
