It’s great that we have people who recycle and salvage such priceless and historical items.
these slide-shows youve been doing at the end are incredibly inspiring, thanks for taking the time to put those together, and thanks to everyone thats been submitting them!
I was thinking the same about the slide show. I've got four acres of "projects" and this channels content along with the pictures sent in from other people, are very inspiring. That's something I need in my life it seems.
BOAT..Bust ..Out ..Another .. Thousand ! MAN I LOVE YOUR ADMERATION AND DETERMINATION so cool what you are doing. fallow your dreams and be safe at it ...it's amazing
Boat looks great. Been watching for a while now. I built a 40ft steel ketch a few years ago. Might be a bit late but it's worth casting steel into the anodes around the bolt holes, or a strap between bolt holes so that once the anode starts getting eaten away and the zinc/aluminium dissolves, the steel keeps it secure and we'll bonded to the hull.
Good idea
I need to buy a welder so I can be a professional grinder.
Lol, Just get a shirt like this: www.amazon.com/dp/B071KWJMVC
A great video I love seeing how she is coming along. looking forward to seeing the next instalment. Regards Richard.
I admire your resolve. You have a dream, and you're chasing it. Godspeed.
its an exciting notion that the floors are going in!
Doug you're killing it. You're moving this thing right along!
Its called a Union Flag, only called a Union Jack if flown on a Naval Vessel. Love this channel and sharing in your journey.
I am amazed at how well you overcome missteps. I cut the hole in the wrong spot, oh well, weld it up and redo. I need to learn to not beat myself up over things like that.
When the saw belt flew off, I busted a gut. Life is short, but you can make it longer by laughing more!
Every time I read " What have you made today? " at the end of the video, it makes me think about what I've built today. Too often it has been nothing, but this morning, I have made something already. I made a list.
I forgot all about sending in that pic of the knife I made. thanks for showing it Doug
Betcha your glad that metal tube you slid down didn't have a burr/splinter on er! Awesome video....Nice work
Nice work with anodes. I have seen anodes with iron flatbar inside. Its prevents anodes falling off quickly
Love to see that Sink alloy react with the oxygen in the atmosphere!! I really like the way that those anodes are made! really custom, really easy...
Best video in weeks! We are following you from the beginning. Keep up the good work. Cheers
I liked the "what did you make today" part of the video. Very interesting!
Painting... any soon? Beside, you all guys, are SOMETHING. Good work!!!
Just built a shower and bench out of Ipe. I laughed out loud when I saw that clip, had the same issues. I draw a lot of knowledge from your videos, thank you for putting them out!
As always, Thanks for the education!
I always enjoy the foundry work!
and an observation all the blokes had some form of facial hair in this RUclips !

Doug, instead of using ESC key in Mach3, you could use spacebar.
Spacebar is Feedhold. It works by executing the current line of G-code and then pausing after it is done. This way you don't interrupt in the middle of a movement, but get a controlled stop without the drift issue.
Awesome fan pics!
Thanks, Doug, for including my wood turning pics at the end of your video!
Excellent job on the casting molds Doug, you sure have learned alot over the years. May the wind always be at your stern! That should be on one of your wood panels :)
I see Doug's plan now. He's going to keep casting to fill up the yard with sand and bring the beach to the boat. On the epoxy and MDF. Stray shellac if sprayed heavily with saturate the MDF and make for a harder surface to machine.
A Union Jack, a Royal Standard and a Triumph Motorcycle!! Kinda of makes me feel at home lol
p.s. God Bless America, and thanks for sharing all these great uploads.
Amazing, looks like fun!
Love watching the videos awesome work as for the screw head issue try just using a drill with the clutch set or a screw gun not an impact driver. just a thought
Friend of mine who does a lot of metal casting told me that with regard to Soduim Silicate / CO2 moulds, if you add a half a percent of glucose powder to the sand before you add the sodium silicate, the sand mould will disintegrate more rapidly in water when you're removing it from the moulded part at the completion of the pour. The bloke in question has been a foundry metallurgist for 40 years and has specialised in brass, bronze and what you yanks call "Ulloominum". I have no reason to doubt him. He also said that if you pack a thin layer of very fine facing sand on the surface of the pattern you will get a very fine finish on the moulded part which will require a lot less cleaning up work. If you feel so inclined to have a look at the way he operates, you can find him by typing "olfoundryman' in the RUclips search box. Another bloke who really knows what he's doing is a bloke called "luckygen1001" He works with Cast iron.
Thanks
loved the great mix of things shown in the video! thanks
one of the most interesting videos so far,
Shellac or sanding sealer is also a good way to seal the cut surface of MDF. It's cheaper than 5 minute epoxy and dries in seconds. Worth a go if you do that again I think.
I just found your channel and i immediately have the urge to help.
But then again, i don't know if i could. My work is all about bicycles and this is a bit different. xD
I wish you and all your helpers good luck on finishing an amazing project.
I hope my english isn't too bad. Greetings from Germany
Welcome. We have our second volunteer from German arriving on Sunday.
So nice to real Mechanics at work!!
if the photos at the end are fan submissions, this channel has the best fan base on youtube
Yup. Fantastic people out there. Send your project photo to me at svseeker@ymail.com Put "Project Photo" in the subject line.
Doug! Such an amazing update. You tell such a great story with your videos. Amazing progress! :D
the surface tension on that metal is insane!
Those ipe decking makes a huge difference!
wow it is extremely rare to see a mole alive that is amazing.
I love this channel.
For screwing into hard wood, dip your screws into Tallow 👍🏻 also if you're doing a compound cut (2 angles) on your floor plates? Make them square and then cut the angles, much easier and quicker 👍🏻
Thanks for another great video.~
thanks for the info i was shure it was a steel hemorrhoid pillow lol and yes epee is a tight straight grained hardwood a little lube will make the screwing better lol waiting patiently for the next episode hopefully without the spiderbites that was massive
Very Nice Work
Hey Doug,
I'd try routing the letters in PE (polyethylene) sheet. You can get them at places that sell machining plastics and it's relatively cheep (you can also make your own from old bottles but that would unnecessary complicate the matter). Finish should be quite smooth and require no mucking about with epoxy :)
wow some valuable wood there..nice guy
As a professional paper towel dispenser installer, I can confirm that you do not need a laser level to install an Impulse PT dispenser! Cheers!
You're right. A water level would be the way to go. :)
That's what I use everyday!
love the videos of the build bud !! keep the dream alive my friend !
a good trick for drilling lots of holes to depth 'freehand': instead of the tape, take a piece of scrap wood, and cut it to the length between the end of your tape and the drill chuck, then drill through it in that direction, and use it as a physical stop. This is nice because you don't have to watch it as close, and and unlike tape, it won't creep and slide if it gets warm. (or get your drill bit all gummy)
keep up the good work! love these videos.
cool stuff as always, keep chugging along will be done before you know it
What a great video I've just subscribed.look forward to see your progress now.thanks for sharing.👍🏽
the guy sitting in the scidsteer and the floor collapsed when the crain picked it up. wow TALKIN bout close call
That's Paul's son. ...and look again. The bobcat is hanging from a crane. :)
yes I knew that but it sure looks to be cutting it close. is that why the crane got hooked up?
but I bet the bobcat driver had his safety glasses on! you know, OSHA and everything...
Looks like they a demoing it by having the bobcat hanging above it.
Damn right. I hope he was wearing his safety boots as well. Anyway, any idiot can see that it was the yeller safety jacket that saved him.
Have you consider using lacquer as a sealer (it dries fast and you can get high as kite using it!)
These videos always make me miss boat building lol. I thought I'd never say that haha!
looks like she's getting close to being close!!! :)
What about using Smiths penetrating epoxy on the MDF before routing the letters. If its thin enough it should go deeper than the letters so you dont have to carve it twice
ah yes the old compound miters so reminds me of my roof building days
i remember using IPE at college in a wooden chessboard i made and i learnt fast it needs pilot holes when using screws haha and same with all dense hardwoods and use wax on drill bits and handsaws.
Bart is so cool!
Your loosing steps to the stepper motors, your exactly correct when you are in rapid mode and
you suddenly stop the stepper mother overruns it position and Mach3 thinks it's at. You can lower the rapids in the motor tuning page. I find that I usually reload the program after every time I stop a program mid stream. Dave
Those wire wheels you use in the in the angle grinders are shockers for sheding wires. Imagine if that ended up in your eye.
Great show..I like this what did you make today !
manuka honey works great for spider bites it healed me when i was bit by a black widow it works great (i just ordered it from amazon its great for mercer and staff also
man this project looks like a fucking good time!
I've been watching these videos for quite some time and thoroughly enjoy them! One thing I thought I'd mention even if it's too late but wouldn't it be easier to engrave the pieces once they are poured and solid? Rather then mucking around with trying to do it pre pour? I could be missing something and it may not be possible but though I'd add my 2 cents worth!
live in Brazil, I see all video
in Mach 3, If you click the "Feed Hold" button first, and then "Stop", it will finish the current line of code and then stop, awaiting a "Start" or "Stop". This is the best way to not loose "0"
when engraving mold patterns try printmakers linoleum blocks for nice crisp lines and edges
I saw somewhere a mixture of wax and hdpe that was very machinable, re-meltable and smooth, that might be a good option for those anode patterns. RUclips search machinable wax... I have not finished this video yet so I don't know if the bondo was a success.
Well, I have enjoyed your many videos and admire the fantastic job your and your crew have done. I especially like your skill in the filming, great job editing. I do have one suggestion, number your episodes so we can follow in a logical order and get a real sense of progress.
Bart, most "spider bites" that present to doctors are actually staph infections. Just an FYI.
Interesting, didn't know that
I definitely thought that winch hawse was going to be a very large, very cold, toilette seat at first. haha
Wax works well for the screws, but instead of candle wax, pick up a wax toilet ring at the hardware store for about $3. It's a nice soft wax that is easy to get onto the threads and the wax stays in the threads, unlike candle wax which tends to come off in flakes. One ring will last you a long long time.
Ipé wood, lol yeah we did a few trial and errors with that. Made a curved hand rail, stuff is so hard I had to steam bend it in four peices... Sure is pretty stuff tho...
And pre drill all fasteners I see you learned that one as well... Love the vids, good stuff.
Do you know how to....?
Eh not yet but I will....
toilet bowl wax works good for wood screws.
There's a recycle tip. :)
Life is short ( for an anode ! ).
Jayne Gus life is to short, make the most of it
Hey Doug can you give us an update on the different paints your trying in the water bath to see which ones better, Thanks !! Seeya Rob
You are making MDF parts to go on a boat? No Bueno. Moisture and MDF don't mix well...even when you think it's sealed. Love that boat!
Doug, I'm sure you're making a stock of spares while you're at it, but I'm wondering how many of those zincs constitute one set for the boat?
I've seen all the videos and am enjoying the journey, thanks for bringing us along for the adventure. Did you think way back at the beginning a few videos would bring you worldwide fame?
14 at a time. And no. I figured we'd top out around 3000 subscribers. :) And if getting help from people all over the world is "fame" then I'm good with it.
It's the same with 3D printing, pause using the menu or program and it just empties the buffer then stops which quite often restarts with an offset. If you add a pause at layer change in the Gcode it restarts no problem.
31:00 "That's not the center mark... THAT's the center mark"
lol, almost got myself fired laughing at that :)
:)
haha , measure twice or even thrice and cut once is always a great adage to remember Doug.
Please remember it's only a Union Jack if it is flown from a mast, any other time it is a Union Flag. Royal Standard is only used in the presence of the monarch. Also did you know the Union Flag/Jack can also be flown upside down, many people get this wrong but I still forgive them :-)
Probably been said already BUT If you use feedhold(space bar) the machine will stop at a point that's safe and you shouldn't lose steps and should be able to start right back up when you finished doin whatever you need
Good video
I think your problem with the wood splitting is that the thread is too coarse. Try a finer thread wood screw and it'd probably avoid that problem.
Bart's spidey senses are tingling
CnC stuff doesn't lose it's place if it is equipped with an encoder and servo motors are better than steppers, as they are also better at keeping their place
That is why you use the spacebar "Pause" function first, and not the "Esc" or "Stop". Pause lets it finish what it is doing before it stops. "Esc" stops it right now.
Привет из сибири!
you could get some retired exotic dancers for umbrella girls lol
did you ever find out if it was a mechanical error in the cnc process? ive seen mach 3 do some wonky things if say you press the space bar (hold feed) vs clicking the stop feed button. ive paused my cuts mid through using space bar to pause and then the z axis plunges way too deep! best of luck keep up the good work
Lost stepper steps, because of the weight of the axis and not ramping down. You would need a closed loop system if you want to be able to interrupts the gcode with out a lost of position.
If the zinc makes you feel sick then drink milk this will help. I cast with zinc alloy (ZA12) and have had to use the milk several times I'm 74 now so no side effects to speak of that was caused by it. Always best to not be down wind!
How often do you expect to replace these anodes??? Did you make a lifetime supply or do you have a secret plan for them?
just a thought.
those wood floor panels are a tight fit against the hull, Will the flexing of the hull in water make them wedge tighter then planned or pop up .?
