Peter its Sunday morning here and I am getting ready to go and sail my 38’ trimaran solo in a single handed race. And this is such a nice a contrast to that as I get ready. I love your work mate. Thanks again. G.
Pneumatic nailers make life so much easier, cant imagine doing that job with small brads and a hammer. Looks outstanding, cant wait to see the finished product
Hi Peter, it always amazes me how you grunt and grown when you’re doing it makes me laugh How you talk to you, grunting and groaning at the same time LOL anyway keep up the good work I love watching the videos because you make me laugh the way you act
Thanks for that! I often am surprised while editing about all those grunts and groans. I've even had complaints. Oh well, goes along with me being me, I suppose. Cheers!
Dam fine work there Peter looks great and suspect smells fine a lot of work but worth it. Hoping to get some more done I my ship now warmer weathers arrived and Cat let's me back on board. Keep at it now and have a hoot now.😅😂❤
looking good Peter . just a thought for the bottom of the deck above the serial number ... laminate a sheet of polished copper or brass to the deck to span between the "planking" and trim as you would ~ cheers
I yelled "No" at my screen when I saw you cover up the area you wanted to add the block to, but nice recovery Peter 😊. A lot of work but the overhead is looking nice. Hoping the exercise and stretching helps relieve your back pain. As always be safe but have fun. 🛥🇺🇸🇨🇦
Hi Peter, I remember in the past you were not allowed to do boat work in the marina and used to motor to a national park. It looks like you're now tied up near some industrial looking dock. Have you worked out a location that permits the use of power tools? I love your videos
Hi Peter,I have noticed that in American and Canadian boat channels that I watch the boats are tied up with the eye on the bitts and the free end of the rope ashore which means that someone has to go ashore to make any adjustments,and as a retired mariner that is loss of control.Just a thought,loved the video you are doing a great job,cheers Roly🇬🇧.
That's such a interesting observation Roly! I suppose, at least in my case, it's easier to step ashore from the swim grid adjusting the lines from the dock than to clamber forward along the narrow side decks. But i certainly see your point, especially for larger vessels.
We have a cliffhanger this week- I'm standing by waiting to see how that backing block for the Samson post will look with Bronze bolts. Painted white cedar needs a touch of bronze and brass like a china teacup needs a raised pinky finger.
Two beam members perpendicular each end of the registration number (to create a 'box' around it) and then a nicely shaped inverted wedge from the beam in front of the registration number to finish above the reg. number to fill that 'box'. Should look nice and actually draw the eye to your little piece of history. Then continue with you cedar ceiling trim each side
When I moved three years ago I had to pack up and put my tools into storage as there was a six month lag moving from one home to the other. I’m still looking for misplaced tools. Cheers!!
Peter is in Beast Mode!!! That last episode explained a lot about your ability to deal/cope with curves, which I struggle with... Thank you for sharing your skills.
Woodworkers who haven’t used a 23 gauge pin nailer don’t know what they’re missing. For other applications the 21 and 18 gauge nailers are also awesome. The way the 23 gauge pins disappear is magic!
You're a master at the table saw. Having managed to drive my finger into the blade of mine........I am on edge watching you. Another entertaining episode .
I had an idea... want to run by you. Regarding what to do at the member with the numbers: Do exactly what you did before it, BUT... make the cedar pieces triangular in cross section, so that the thickness is zero where it meets the top of the bulkhead where the plate is... there should still be adequate ventilation because at the far side, they'll be regular thickness, and have that little strip that each of those pieces rests on. Now... to make it look good you probably WILL have to rip out the cedar pieces you already put up, BUT... as you put them in with tiny pin nails, it shouldn't be a problem. To support the pieces at both ends, you'll need a narrower strip and probably put it halfway between the two existing pieces of the overhead structure, and nail them to THAT so you don't have to put nails through the part above... OR... just use some kind of adhesive at the end where the plate is. Just something strong enough to keep them from going anywhere, not so strong that it'll rip chucks of the wood off if you ever have to remove them. It will create the illusion that the deck is farther above the soul than it is at that last point, which might be kinda cool. Anyway, just a thought.
You can always make a small wooden 'jig' for a die grinder and grind out faux grooves in the plywood over the reg number. I'm sure you don't need me to give you a detailed description of the jig, I don't try to teach Granny how to suck eggs either...
I think I would set the 1/2" strip 1/2" away from the beam with the registration number and paint the space white and then mount the ceiling panels. Alternatively, you could gut the 1/2" mounting strip on an angle and mount it directly alongside the beam so it reveals the number.
Peter how about chamfering the back of the small planks along full length of the reg number beam so that the edge there would only be about 2.5mm or 3/32 (or less) in antique measurements then mounting the planks on a smaller height spacer along the second beam to trick the eye into believing its all the same
Well I was going to say "something" about not using a push stick while working on the band saw, but after seeing your episode back east and that you are using the switch-a-roo trick, I will just say: Everyone else, use a push stick while playing with the band saw. ;-). I really like the air-gap, our sailboat is steel so I have the same addiction of having air circulations! 09:50...10:11, LOL. The surveyor inside me cringes at the windlass cables with no chaffing protection or boots, but... Lets move on. 14:23, "no one's ever going to see it...", but YOU would know. I am surprise you did n ot seal the cedar, especially that it is full of knots... There must be a trick, maybe we will learn it next episode.
I really thought you would leave the T&G natural, or varnish it, but then again, that might look too 'busy' in a small space. You can't go far wrong with white (except if the knot holes show through). Looks great.
Plain down the thickness of your imitation deck boards so that they’re thinner and do that whole bay with that. It would look similar, but wouldn’t cover up your numbers.
@ yours was a valid solution that could stand on its own or if you still want to use my idea you could just put it within the small box you created in front of your numbers.
Eye protection is reasonably consistent. Hearing protection is unheard of. Foolishness aside, Andrea is a good influence on my improved attitude to personal protection.
If you need a place to work, why not buy a barge or a cheap boat that floats. Strip it all out, build a work shop on it, with a generator. Tow it to wherever you need it to be. Look in marinas at abandoned ones. My friend bought an old 40 foot Holiday Mansion for 4K, ripped all the top off(heavy damage from a tree falling on it), sealed up the stern drive holes, built a nice cabin on it. He got over 8K for all the running gear and other bits & parts without even trying.
@@TravelsWithGeordie Yea, it all depends on cost. My buddy got an old beat up 16x 40 foot steel barge for $6000, and it don't leak, except for the holes in the deck. He built a cabin on it, moored for free on the trent near Bobcaygeon. Not sure about your area, but a cheap pontoon or houseboat could make a good workshop that you could tow and moor anywhere you like, especially if you can moor it for free. Could be worth the investment if you can do work for money
@@Coyotehello I love seeing Peter's woodworking skills, however, it's convinced me that when I get my boat there's going to be absolutely no wood on it.
@@Drenov I know, right! I have to say that I am surprised he sold the boat house, to me if I had a woody it would have to live protected in a boat house. Living outside the amount of maintenance I would think is 10 folds. I nearly bought a beautiful little wood trawler 3-4 years ago I phone a surveyor friend of mine and he said: "Take two aspirins and call me in the morning"...
“It’s too much work” you said… Yes, Peter. You have wooden boats coming out the wazoo. It’s always going to be “too much work”! But thats why we are here watching, too. Thanks for another great episode!
I thought of you Peter when I watched this documentary of Lunenburg and wooden boats and old home restoration. ruclips.net/video/_sxWSwAU4vE/видео.htmlsi=EUXQ75FG71vDW7s6

I know you love Poem as well but my heart will always go with Geordie
I spent the first 3 minutes of this video staring at your index finger and thumb! Dang, you make me nervous!....LOL!
Sorry about that! I can assure you, I am as averse to injury as you are.
Hi Peter, it always amazes me how you grunt and grown when you’re doing it makes me laugh How you talk to you, grunting and groaning at the same time LOL anyway keep up the good work I love watching the videos because you make me laugh the way you act

Thanks so much Michael. I have made a full recovery. Thanks for commenting and for watching!
Hi Peter, I remember in the past you were not allowed to do boat work in the marina and used to motor to a national park. It looks like you're now tied up near some industrial looking dock. Have you worked out a location that permits the use of power tools? I love your videos
Yes! Geordie is at a commercial marina where modest work can be carried out at the dock. More intense work would still require cruising up the Gorge.

Moved away from DeWalt - except for that table saw - which is awesome!
Now I want to go measure what size the brads in my brad gun are.
We have a cliffhanger this week- I'm standing by waiting to see how that backing block for the Samson post will look with Bronze bolts. Painted white cedar needs a touch of bronze and brass like a china teacup needs a raised pinky finger.
Oh Paul, I hope I don't disappoint you! It might be some time before those bolts are bronze, but I'll make it up to you with acorn nuts!

You nailed it Eamonn!
Well done Peter, that ceiling looks fantastic. Take care with your back.
When I moved three years ago I had to pack up and put my tools into storage as there was a six month lag moving from one home to the other. I’m still looking for misplaced tools. Cheers!!
That must be frustrating Andy! Everything I own is on this boat and I'm still looking for misplaced tools.
When does the fun and ambitious cruising start? All this work is overwhelming.
Spotted the emphasis on “the boats” in this week’s intro, guess I wasn’t the only one who said hmmm? Last week 😊
Thanks as always Dusty!
Take care of your back!
Peter is in Beast Mode!!! That last episode explained a lot about your ability to deal/cope with curves, which I struggle with... Thank you for sharing your skills.
Your very welcome Lou! Thanks for watching and for your continued support of the show!
You were working on Poem when I last saw the nail gun. Hope you find it.
I love your work. Please look after your back. Thanks for yet another episode.
Thanks Peter! Andrea's got me on a strict stretching/exercise regime to prevent a re occurrence. Happy to say I'm on the mend. Cheers!
@@TravelsWithGeordie That can mean so many things 🤣
Woodworkers who haven’t used a 23 gauge pin nailer don’t know what they’re missing. For other applications the 21 and 18 gauge nailers are also awesome. The way the 23 gauge pins disappear is magic!
Oh my gosh, yes! Both as a tack up and finish gun, it's been an essential part of my workflow for a long time! Thanks so much!
Love my Grex!
You're a master at the table saw. Having managed to drive my finger into the blade of mine........I am on edge watching you. Another entertaining episode .
Oh Bryan I'm so sorry! I hope there is no lasting damage. I am actually much more careful that it may seem.
Loving it , loving it, loving it !
Thanks Robert!

Anyway, just a thought.
Great idea, and well though out. I hope you feel what I ended up doing is half as nice. Thanks for comment and for watching!
I vote for trim
Dankeschön endlich übersetzt 😊
Intro much clearer. Our collective concerns were unfounded. 😅
Whew, I'm glad I cleared that up!
You can always make a small wooden 'jig' for a die grinder and grind out faux grooves in the plywood over the reg number. I'm sure you don't need me to give you a detailed description of the jig, I don't try to teach Granny how to suck eggs either...
Wow Mike! You and I have a similar penchant for trying too hard.
Would look good in focsle too.
With trim..☺️
Definitely! That's exactly what's planned. Thanks Richard!
I liked it better without paint. But great work as always!
Do you put on the table saw fence backwards for a reason?
I think I would set the 1/2" strip 1/2" away from the beam with the registration number and paint the space white and then mount the ceiling panels. Alternatively, you could gut the 1/2" mounting strip on an angle and mount it directly alongside the beam so it reveals the number.
Yes exactly! Pretty similar to what I ended up doing. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
@@TravelsWithGeordie Love your channel Peter. I live in TO but presently wintering in Lancashire!
Peter how about chamfering the back of the small planks along full length of the reg number beam so that the edge there would only be about 2.5mm or 3/32 (or less) in antique measurements then mounting the planks on a smaller height spacer along the second beam to trick the eye into believing its all the same
Thanks Scott! That's just about what I did! Cheers!
looking as awesome as I knew it would. Another exciting episode. Love it love it love it.
Thanks so much Don!
I think that will look great.
Thanks Marcel!
Great job! Get yourself a nice massage afterward.
Stay safe and we'll see you next week.
Thanks Milt!
just curious on why would you want to sell the boat shed it was I thought a good garage for working ??
Please install a “thanks” button. It will help you get tips and contributions along the way.
Oh my gosh Jane, I didn't even know about them! Thank you very much for telling me. Thanks button has been added!

Thanks for all the great thoughts! I hope I explained it in subsequent episodes. I'm sorry to not have replied earlier. PS the "flip it" trick rocks!
@@TravelsWithGeordie yes yes fishing those wires into the twin conduits, brilliant.
🙂
Criminally under subscribed.
Heh, a few more would be nice. Cheers!
I really thought you would leave the T&G natural, or varnish it, but then again, that might look too 'busy' in a small space. You can't go far wrong with white (except if the knot holes show through). Looks great.
Thank you! And yes, natural cedar would be cluttered in that space. Good point on the knots, Zinzer BIN is my friend!
@@TravelsWithGeordie here is the answer "Zinzer BIN". Just learned something.
Plain down the thickness of your imitation deck boards so that they’re thinner and do that whole bay with that. It would look similar, but wouldn’t cover up your numbers.
Great solution Duane! I hope you are pleased with what I ended up with.
@ yours was a valid solution that could stand on its own or if you still want to use my idea you could just put it within the small box you created in front of your numbers.

So far Jeff!
I miss your beer of the day and word of the day!
We do to Anouk! And we'll bring it back now and then.
Nice change, now the two you are fixing up are the boats and not your gf and your late pup( lay he rest in peace)
Is it just me that thinks you should have just painted the ceiling white?
I was thinking the same thing, like glue some heavy old-school cloth and paint that white, keep the headroom. But this is good too.
🙂
