    I really appreciate your problem solving attitude. From the start of your channel with your very limited financial means at the time, to your much greater spending power today. You seem to consistently find an approach that fits your requirements and means without overbuilding it, and able to accept the tradeoffs and limitations that come with it, and never skimp on putting the time and effort in. That has built you a boat (and a channel) that’s at any time the best it could have been. Very well done.

    • @charlielloyd1080
      @charlielloyd1080 Год назад +3

      Flexible boats are strong boats. I hope Kika and Dan don't make UMA too rigid. A bit of flexible design allows the loading stresses to be transferred and shared. The brilliant work they did in step 114 bonding the deck to hull created a structural monocoque probably 'stronger' than the original design. My guess is that a few bonded ribs where the hull has deformed or bends too far would be perfect. I would rather sail a boat that bends under unexpected extreme loading than be in one that cracks and breaks apart.

    • @skohaya
      @skohaya Год назад

      @@charlielloyd1080 it's amazing that little boat has traveled so far. The structural issue of the mass and the lack of structural attachments that caused the boat to dimple on the sides, hopefully this can be replaced. After gutting a boat that much is there still value in Reglassing and reattaching of the boat has been molded to this flimsy life? For example is someone loses 100lbs, their body is forever damaged carrying all of that excess weight.. (skin stretched, joints ruined, fat cells large, stomach stretched). Can the boat be restored? 🥴

  • @skyak4493
    @skyak4493 Год назад +1

    About your jigsaw problem with kicking the breaker in your inverter. Electric motors are inductive devices and brushed motors can make for a very "dirty load" because every time the contact is broken from a coil the voltage goes to infinity theoretically. This "noise" doesn't harm the power grid, but your inverter needs to protect itself and it will if it is smart enough. Your inverter it seems is smart enough. It could be a fast current trip or a fast voltage trip. The other possibility is that even though your saw shouldn't draw more power than your inverters rating, it does so at a bad "power factor" -which means that due to a mismatch in impedance, the power you draw is higher than the power you use. Your saw might have a capacitor in it to correct power factor (and suppress electrical noise), and that capacitor may have gone bad in it's old age.

    • @skyak4493
      @skyak4493 Год назад

      If it "fixed itself" it was likely the electrical noise from the brushes. You pulled the rotor, and maybe touched the contacts. The problem was burned away with use.

    Remodeling. Be glad you only have 36’ to do. I’m 15 years into a first best guess 5 year remodel and probably at least another 5 if we add on remodeling the kitchen before I retire from working. Living in a remodel while you are doing it is mentally problematic. Especially as new repair projects pop up and take your time and money away from the “schedule”. I’ve found that writing stuff down and discussing ideas with the wife as talking points are key. I’m glad that in the basics, structure, electrical, ventilation I’ve done upgrades up to the max I can in each case the wise smart longer time to do choice has always paid off. 1. Its the best it can be so not worried about “can it be better?”
    2. To be satisfied with very good top shelf work but not desire perfection.
    3. To change the plan as things such as electronics have improve din 15 years. However I’m still glad that I ran 5 drops 3 ether/2 coax to every room and spot that I’d think I’d need it. Love my wired connections with all the wifi neighborhood chatter.

If you are on the phone, I am forced to interrupt the conversation and tell the other end, you can hear me, I can't hear you wait a minute please. I am building an Overland Rig. The majority of my appliances are 220V . I run more than one inverter. I run a 4000W Carutu inverter 120V as well as a 5000W Carutu inverter 220V,( on demand shower is 220 V, 3,600 W) and two 2000W induction single element cooktops. Having made a few OOPs decisions , yes planning takes a ton of time. Things don't go as planned which is why I ended up purchasing 2 new inverters as my 3000W unit won't put out 3000 W, read the heater in the top set won't work. I trust things will go smoothly from here on in.

    Loved the "Flashdance" homage, epic, though far removed from 1983, and I was almost middle aged then, so now, holy crap, how did that ever happen? Where did all that time go? You must have at some point sailed on some of that water that went under that particular bridge. From a carefree time to finding yourself an Old Codger but I can't say it happened overnight can I, it's been 40 years.

    When faults fixes themselves you just know that the problem WILL happen again, just when you are in a position when the fault will be really bad or you cannot easily get the parts to fix it (or both).

    Uma-Terra! The RV is the right idea. I always used 10-80-10 as a guide for my projects in the chemical industry. 10% of time is the planning, engineering and purchase of major equipment; 80% is receiving and organizing materials, construction and pre-commissioning; the last 10% is putting everything in service, discovering issues and repairing/modifying, and lastly a review of the previous 90% to see if we could have done anything better or cheaper and document for use in small future improvements. So now I am comparing 90-7-3 to see if my 10-80-10 needs adjusting.

    Regarding the solar panel. You should run a flir or infrared camera app over it as this will indicate any faulty section directly - even before immediately obvious through display!!!

    I like those panels !
    There so nicely made and handy to fold.
    A kilowatt is per hour .. 😊
    So there is no kilowatt per hour like amps per hour.
    On our camper we have a 100 watt peak panel. That means they work average for 80% .
    But out camper is sufficient as we do not use any AC power or airco to cool us.
    Our fridge runs on gas.
    You guys rock .. well done.

    • @michaelhancock9636
      @michaelhancock9636 Год назад

      The bulkheads were designed that way on purpose. If they were glassed in it would create rigidity in a hull that is supposed to be able to flex and move. Rigidity on this particular design would crack the hull and cause catastrophic failure of the hull and the boat would sink.

    I've got a Makita grinder I have abused off and on for about 30 years. It paid for itself the first day way back in the 90's. In the last few years I have been gradually switching to 20vdc battery lithium tools. I have 3 chargers and always have two batteries ready to switch out. It is nice to not have to mess with the vac power cords but sometimes the power from 120vac is good to have.

    I loved this day in the life video. I'm still amazed that you're able to do the work while the boat is in the water. Great stuff. We'll definietly check out the solar origami since we are in the market for new panels on Neverland. You showed pictures of your editing. I'm wondering what software you use since most of your videos are done with GoPro. Thanks for answering if you have time. Keep up the RV/Boatlife.
