    Lori, young lady, maybe Ikea had a easy solution for the head. Further, maybe they have a EASY build boat on the shelf. EASY solution. ❤❤❤❤

    All those custom made pieces of wood, that's a big 3D puzzle! It's going to be a unique and amazing head. Congratulations.

    Templates should be mandatory. Did ya know the Egyptians used templates for the Pyramids? ❤❤❤❤

    As you design the position of the head… imagine unblocking it or changing the hoses, valves, motor and switches in a pitching dark hull at sea 🌊. Let practicality be your guide 😊

    Drilling metal/steel. It's all about "feeds and speeds". That is the pressure applied and the speed of the drill bit. In most cases, SLOW speeds and HIGH pressure results in faster/better drilling. When using hand held drills pulsing drilling works well. Also, when using a variable speed drill, vary the speed until you see the most/largest chips being produced. THAT is the right speed for that metal.
    Remember, In most cases, SLOW speeds and HIGH pressure results in faster/better drilling. Saves the drill bits as well. Fast drilling, full speed drilling, ruins drill bits because of the heat build up on the bit. Oil/water helps, but high speed is the hand held drill bit killer. You should NEVER drill hard/thick metal at full speed.

      Use drill lube. Best bet. Used to drill aluminum with a 25k RPM speed drill using only 1 bit at 1000 plus 7/32 holes. Aircraft lap belts. Same can be applied to steel. Drill lube is the magic.

    Been loving to watch and learn from these projects! I'm new here, so still getting caught up with all the previous videos as well as checking out the new ones. Quick comment on the toilet. I can't perfectly visualize all the dimensions your final install, just make sure that the waste out goes through turns that are "throws" instead of 90 deg "elbows". Just looked a bit close to the wall (I'm sure your looking to maximize space and all), so thought I'd bring that up. Thanks so much for sharing!!!

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад +1

      Welcome to the channel! So glad to have you here 🙌🙏⛵
      Excellent point and thanks for the note. The toilet does sit against the slope of the hull but there is enough space to get a slight curve and avoid any 90 deg bends. We'll definitely keep that in mind as we finish this up! Cheers!

    Though Mirriam-Webster defines a *bulkhead* merely as "an upright partition separating compartments" my understanding of a bulkhead in a boat is that these are the _transverse (side to side) structural partitions_ and that their main purpose is to resist pressure from the outside of the hull, ie they prevents the boat to collapse inwards. The bulkheads also stiffens the hull for torsional compression/tension (together with stringers/frame), and often functions as a base for outside structures like chain plates. To me, Lahakai is a monocoque boat with a complete frame and now/few structural bulkheads ... but what do I know, let the experts say ... ?

    Nice Work! I figure you are starting the "finishing" soon, and was wondering if you will be using trim and molding along the joints between the seams of the plywood?

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      Thanks! Yes we will be using jequitibá solid wood for the trim. It’s the same wood we used for the table and stairs. And some parts will just be laminated. Hopefully it will all blend nicely when it is varnished 🤞🤞

    We respect what Y are doiing and are convinced that the end will be great. But We have a small question. How do Y propose to ingress all Yr cut nice waterresistant or proofed plywood.. the tops will be allright but the cuts are ptone to be infested by moist.
    It will take only a few years sailing in rough seas.
    Succes.

      Thanks for your question! We will be fiberglassing the wet area to seal it all off. The dry area too will be sealed and painted thoroughly. Once we fix the bulkheads and door we would be able to start on that job. Cheers!!

  • @JustForC-k4x
    @JustForC-k4x Год назад +1

    Keep my finger crossed for the Lahakai! I wonder if I got the idea of multi-functional door correctly. Could (after e.g. using shower) the water from 'wet area' side of the doors drain into dry/main areas?

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      Thanks so much!! 🤞 A quick squeegee of the door could prevent this, as well as cut down on cleaning, humidity and mold. Mom does this in her shower at home and glass stays spotless! And you know mom knows best 😝

    What to do to the big dents on the outside of the boat its very ugly thing hmm 🤔?

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад +1

      A certain level of distortion is normal when metal is heated during welding. This will all be covered in the fairing process - that’s when a compound is used to smooth the boats surface while also adding a level of protection.

  • @claudehopper9813

    I'll refrain from the " looking great " obligatory comments . In the wet area what is the plan for waterproofing ? The plywood panels are not suitable for continual dampness as , deterioration , mold & rot is likely . Does the the shower drain into the bilge , lastly did i miss the location of the vanity in the head area ?

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад +2

      Good question, we will be fully fiberglassing the wet area. The dry area too will be treated and painted fully. The shower floor and basin are on the to-do list still. And the vanity is on the right of the door jam in the dry area. There's also a wet locker and some details we're going to tackle this coming week. Cheers!

    Silver insulation absolutely useless , you need a spray foam closed cell

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      The insulation we are using is a special technology that uses Mylar. We have a couple of episodes that talk all about why we chose this product. Check those out and let us know what you think!
