Home built CNC wood lathe & Carving a Solid Oar S2-E84

- Essential equipment for a sailboat is an oar and hook. Join boat builder, Bob Emser as he craves an oar out of solid Ash for his Haven 12 1/2, Skylark. In addition he joins his friend Steve as he turns the handle for an antique boat hook he found over 60 years age. Steve gives us a tour of an old lathe that he has repurposed into a CNC wood lathe.
“If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.”

That was turning on an academic level, Bob. It was clear that your friend Steve has earned an engineer’s degree.
Bob - Steve is a treasure. Thanks for sharing his talents with us.
One winter morning I was walking along the beach on Nags Head and found an old morning hook. Still have it someplace.
Very nice!
Beautiful job on that oar and boat hook. Steve is genius in the way he designs and builds his tools.
I cannot tell you how very much I have enjoyed your channel over the years. Every single video has always been fantastic. Every single one of them. And this one is certainly no exception. I don't need to tell you that making them out of ash was the correct decision. A solid oar is mandatory in a small boat. And the ancient hook was another brilliant idea. Best of luck at the launch and show. First in show for sure!!
Amazing how someone can take a lathe that is 125 years old & repurpose it with modern computer technology. This is all so inspirational, I hope once I'm retired I can build at least one wooden boat, not sure what method yet but looking at all kinds! I would love to be closer to the eastern sea board & to visit some of the boat building shops!! Thanks for sharing these videos.
A good source for explanation of rowing a small sailboat with one oar can be found in The Compleat Cruiser by L. Francis Herreshoff. He introduces Mr. Weldon and the Rozinante in chapter 3. Weldon explains how to use a single oar for propelling the Rozinante. Standing up and facing forward with a long oar is the basic point.
I love listening to the old timers there knowledge just blow's my mind . Thank you again, may GOD bless you 🙏.
Very cool episode. Who says ya need modern machine tools to have CNC machine tools? See ya in mystic. I'll be there on Saturday with my family.
Really amazing work, Bob! Nicely done!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Hi Bob - Looks great! best of luck with the launch and at the show. Skylark should win best of show for sure this year.
Hey, thanks!
Looking forward to splash day!
I love seeing craftsmen working their magic! 👍👍
Engineers, God love em.
Looking great Bob. I wondered if you considered a single sculling oar so that you could scull over the transom? Hope all goes well with the launch!
The technique we always used to move the sailboat small distances without sailing is called "wrikken" in Dutch and uses a single oar. It seems to translate to "Stern sculling". It's a very useful technique and even quite energy efficient once you have gained some skill making figure-eights. It just requires a single rear oar lock and it can be offset from the rudder. On our boats it was just a round recess in the top of the transom.
I did notice the handle of the oar was coated like the rest. If you leave that part uncoated or just oiled it will be much nicer in the hand. A laqucered surface can cause blisters with extended use. It's why I've treated all the wooden handles of my woodworking tools with linseed oil after sanding off the factory finish.
From Wikipedia:
"Stern sculling is the process of propelling a watercraft by moving a single, stern-mounted oar from side to side while changing the angle of the blade so as to generate forward thrust on both strokes. The technique is very old and its origin uncertain, though it is thought to have developed independently in different locations and times."
Look forward to seeing the launch, very cool to see the do-it-yourself CNC lathe. Could also have done it with a pattern lathe.
+ Steve and Bob , THANK YOUS . 🙏❤
Bob amazing attention to detail as always.
P.S. I received my T-Shirt last week really pleased with it, first class quality. All the best from the U.K.
Glad you like it.
See you at the show!
Hi Bob, you could use the single oar for sculling over the transom. But that would require a little notch in the transom.
That episode was the icing on the cake. The cherry on top, will be next Friday when my kids (all woodworkers in their own right) and I will get to see you and Skylark at Mystic. Can’t wait.
That cnc lathe is first class!
Dear Bob,
two weeks ago I discovered your chanel during research for my own wooden sailing boat. I started speedrunning the Haven 12 1/2 series and just finished in time for the launch. Your videos contain some really useful stuff!
All the best and make it beautiful!
I am currently shaving down the cedar handle for a boat hook, trying to get the handle weight down enough that the hook will stand vertically in the water if accidentally dropped, rather than lying flat on the water (I forget where I read about doing so). Given the diameter of your handle and the chosen wood (ash), I doubt you are close to a vertical float. I wonder if you considered this aspect in the design. Have a great launch.. Skylark is a beauty and I will look forward to watching the launch from afar.
I have dropped the hook in the lake. It does float vertical. The bronze hook easily sinks downward.
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding I suspect your hook has a good bit more mass than mine. I can't tell you how much I have enjoyed and learned from your videos. Well done and I can't wait to see Skylark under sail.
Great stuff
I am older than Steve and less intelligent. I got a kick out of his expertise.
Good luck with the launch. I have enjoyed watching you build Skylark from the beginning.
Nice work as always, the ash really looks good under the varnish. Good luck with the launch and I’m looking forward to see the video. The big question then….is what will be your next project?
The quick answer is more boat building. What boat? Not sure yet.
Thanks for watching!
Did I see this video before?🤔
I’m going to try to make it to Mystic by then. I had a hard time googling the launch site. Is the launch at the Mystic Shipyard West Yard or the Water Street Public Launch?
At the West Mystic Wooden Boat 120 School st. West Mystic.
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding Thanks for the clarification!
Wait, you should have a 10' oar and it should be made out of spruce or fir...and you're going to make a 7' oar out of heavy ash? I think you are going to regret this choice on 2 accounts. 1. It calls into question (in my mind) your seaman-smarts (that's pretty important as a RUclips 'personality.') 2. "...not going to use the oars a lot..." Once you need to row, you will need to row more than a few strokes. The first time will be 'a lot.'
I get it, nice 'craftsmanship.' But this is about more than cabinetry and wood-matching. C'mon.
With only one oar, he is not going to be rowing, but rather paddling. Shaw & Tenney make oars out of Ash take the 'seaman-smarts' up with them.
