Nice wood supplier.
Showing that scarf cross section like a "proud papa"😉
Yes indeed Bob. They have even snuck me in on a Sunday when I was in a pinch.
Just beginning and looks great as usual(meaning interesting for myself, just a weekend woodworker.) Cheers...rr Normandy, FRa.
Cool, thanks
Have you ever tried cutting slow epoxy with acetone as a penetrating coat?
I haven’t, but I know you can thin epoxies with acetone. You can also use lacquer thinner or denatured alcohol. West System allows for about 2% thinning without compromising structural strength. I don’t feel The need to chemically thin epoxy. I can warm the resin if I want lower viscosity. West System did a comparative study of low viscosity penetrating epoxies and found they didn’t penetrate any better than warmed 105 resin.
@@Nomadboatbuilding thanks , I like that warming idea but does it eat into pot life?
Yes it will so you have to find work arounds like limiting batch size. Most of the occasions in which I need larger volumes usually involve dispensing the mixed epoxy in larger volumes too. Like wetting out fibreglass. I pretty much dump out the whole pot at once and spread it out quickly. The exothermic reaction slows immediately.
Fantastic scarfing demo! Thanks Mark
Thanks Bob. Laminating in the next one.
Finally someone with a hand P with plywood
I find it’s better
Yeay 🎉❤ loved the super fine back saw just before the glue up.
Practical scarf 🤔 one that keeps you warm👍
Great to see you back build 🤸♂️🎯
Someone’s awake 🤣
I have more than one Makita the bearings the the problem
This was an awesome video :) Enjoying this project very much!
Glad to hear it!
Can you go in to more detail on how you do that with the slick? There are some many time where I have cut off to much and would love to put some back on, LOL. Love the vids!
Sure thing!
Mark, I never thought of epoxy like that. I use West System. How much a pump?
About $2-$2:50 per pump. Depends on the hardener. The 207 is more expensive than the 205 or 206
That is so similar to a seabright skiff you may want to watch this old video of a guy who built over 900 of them in that basic size.

It's 28 minutes long and you get excerpts of the building process scattered in different parts of the video. It also shows the virtues of the boat in its handling characteristics and some of the history.
Thanks Paul. I actually have that video referenced several times either in links or snippets of screencaps. I would love to watch that guy work in person.
@@Nomadboatbuilding Unfortunately he died a few years ago. The last of the Seabright skiff builders.
Great episode! Thank you!!!
Thank you too!
What k8bd of paper are you using to protect the bench/clamps when you glue up the scarf? Looks very handy.
It’s a poly-coated butcher paper. Cheap and effective. I get it from a commercial restaurant supply place near me.
@@Nomadboatbuilding thank you, I'm going to try it out.
your segment on epoxy $$ and use is something I consider on a lot of projects, but inexperience has me using epoxy more times than less, but that would be an interesting video giving options on using epoxy on a project versus paint or varnish, just on one side and covering it with paint/varnish.
Interesting idea Pete. I'll keep that in mind.
Very interesting and entertaining Mark. 🇨🇦🎄
Glad you enjoyed it
Great content! Some really good tips!
Glad it was helpful!
Super job on that plywood scarf!
I'm so happy I found your channel! I love it and your fabulous content. This vid is especially interesting for me because I made my first scarf with a power plane recently. Intuitively, I started out as you did, running across the sheet, slowly reducing each ply and trying to keep the lines parallel and true. Then someone told me to change my technique to run diagonally and before long the lines were all wonky. Eventually I dialed back the blade and I was able to correct them, and thankfully the scarf wasn't for anything important (we were just making a ramp). But the process was interesting. Loud for sure, but also fairly fast. Finished the job with a dull-ish hand plane (I need a LOT more practice). Thanks a million for sharing your expertise, humour and projects. It's appreciated!
We build our skills in baby steps. It sounds like plane sharpening might be on your list. I recommended you check out Rob Cosman's channel for sharpening advice. It’s not the way I do it but it’s obviously a very fast and effective method.
@@Nomadboatbuilding Thanks for the tip. I'll most certainly check out his channel. Sharpening looks like an art in itself.
Just watching the adds hoping and praying we’re boat building and your doing the hard work so l don’t have to. 🎉😮❤
Your prayers have been answered.
@@Nomadboatbuilding God does indeed move I’m mysterious ways ❤️👍
Great stuff Mark. I'm really looking forward to going through this build slowly with you. As ever, we're divided by a common language. Here in the UK it's a story stick.
I'm with you 100% about power planes. I hate the damn things, almost as much as I hate power routers. Other than accuracy, the great unseen advantage of hand planes is that the shavings should see you through the winter without having to buy any fire-lighters. Get your kids to collect them up for you.
I was going to say that I'd have tried a draw knife before picking up a slick, but I guess your standing position would be a bit awkward.
You know, if it had been solid wood, I might have grabbed for the draw knife first. I think the slick offered me more "humf" to combat the grain and glue lines.
