    Lift the gen and make a sprung platform that it sits on. It needs to be isolated from the deck

    Ship shape and Bristol fashion, more hard work and fantastic results.
    Good to see the lads back again, Jordan and Robbo, looking enthusiastic and refreshed. Happy days!!
    Your all set for the new year now, with the new benches in place and everything organised. The new power pack is going to take a lot of pressure off your increasing power requirements.
    A lot has been achieved in this episode, well done. As ever, I can't wait for the next one.

    Love the Echo Flo hat. Great idea. I could have used one years ago
    And I love watching y'all install copper nails. I think because the 2 of you have to cooperate so closely on a boring job. Not many couples could do what you do.
    Suggestion. I don't know what you call them across the pond, but you really need a step drill. Occasionally referred to as a christmas tree drill. You were redrilling for a larger hole. Modern 135 degree split drill bits are not made for that. They only cut at the point. The way you are using them is slow and destroys the bit much faster than just normal wear. A step drill is made for the job and in the long run will cost you less money. Love your channel!

    Copper nailing. Many years ago on a course the boat builder suggested dipping the top of the nail in silicon grease, just a smidgen, before hammering in. Easier to knock in and slightly assist with waterproofing too.

  • @JamesHardiman99
    @JamesHardiman99 7 дней назад +16

    You guys are truly amazing! Two thoughts: how about a little portable gas stove for making tea? Electric kettles really use a lot of lectric. And how about old pallets to stand on in the mud?

    • @020Dutchy

    • @regpain3811

      Salvage companies use inflatable mats on soft mud. They pump up pretty hard, can put decking pads on them. They wash clean in the water.

The colors and the beauty. I enjoy your content and I always enjoy watching to see what you're doing to restore something. That was so beat up and you guys are doing wonderful. I think you have done a magnificent job on this little boat and I think it will last you a long, long time❤❤❤❤❤❤

    Re the sound deadening. Try to isolate the generator from the deck. This will stop the deck from acting like an amplifier. You could get some acoustic isloation feet or springs. That will make a big difference. Good luck. Great video's guys. 😊😊

    Hey - when you burn a finger like that, press it to your earlobe. Don't laugh - it works. There is so much blood supply to the ear lobe, it works as a heat sink. The heat and pain will dissipate quickly.

    If you have lots of those roves to drill... Invest in a hand punch, often called a stanley hand punch, they save so much time and
    are a lot easier than a drill and will leave a nice crisp hole.
