EPISODE 95
In this episode we take on the glamorous and exciting job of fairing the hull! We start with power-planes and then use a variety of grinders and sanders for our initial fairing, taking off the worst of the high spots and shaping the outside of the boat into a smooth curve. Fairing can be a surprisingly complex and difficult job, but is essential for the next steps of the project, which we discuss - caulking, sealing, painting, and so on..
Meanwhile, Rowan makes a ridiculous quantity of bungs and David works inside the boat, taking off the sharp frame corners with a spokeshave.

I now park 1/2 of my car in front of his house and as its legal he can't do anything. he called the police and all I could see was the cop shrugging his shoulders.

Hey Leo. I came across one of your videos while searching for something else and quickly became hooked. I've managed to binge watch all of your vids within the last several days and have only become more impressed with you (and of course Pete and the rest of your crew!) as each video has come to an end. Your humble, self deprecating attitude, your attention to detail and realistic expectations, as well as your affable manner, make you a rare gem. I've been a cabinet maker for 46 years, started when I was 14, and have a great appreciation for your use, and respect of tools. Your ingenuity at solving problems is phenomenal! It is your attitude that is attracting, quite literally, the world to you. I can't even begin to imagine the true impact you are having, and on how many lives you are actually having an effect on! I have suggested to my friends and family (and anyone else that will listen) to watch your videos to see a true "Renascence Man" in action. It gives me great hope to know that there are those that wish to keep these traditions alive. I, for one, am truly humbled by your efforts and contribution to the greater community of "Us".

As a woodworker and skilled wood craftsman, this is the apex of your expertise. I am afraid too many people think in black and white and the world isn't that way and building a boat is definitely not that way. That being said your attention to detail is a horse of a different color and I am not sure how I could explain the difference to most people other than those in the trades. I have watched the build from the beginning and I love every moment of this as this stuff is the stuff that makes me tick Thanks RC

Many years ago I remember reading a piece in Wooden Boat magazine by legendary New England boatbuilder Bud McIntosh; must have been the late '70's or early ',80's. He was writing about fairing the hull of a newly planked wooden boat and began by setting out the tools that would be needed. After listing the various types of planes, spokeshaves, sanding blocks and boards and so on. He ended his list with words to this effect...." and a shotgun to scare away anyone who might approach the boat with any sort of power tool.." How things (and power tools) have changed in the last 50 years! Keep up the good work.

@archstanton9206 3 года назад

I am a car guy, it was interesting to see the term "fairing" used by shipwrights as my side of the world just calls it "bodywork". Seeing you guys sand, feel, sand, run you hand, sand, maybe put a straight edge down, and...mostly sand...well, THAT all looks very familiar. We have other tools; a hammer and dolly, shrinking the metal, a torch, in the old days lead, (my father taught me the basics, he was a master with the lead and paddle) now fillers, etc...you guys can only sand to get it smooth, work the curves into her shape. Same idea, very different surfaces..but the truth is the same for both, 90% of the work gets done before the paint can ever gets opened. I said it before, I understand it can't be, but that raw wood...kinda a bit sad it has to be hidden under the paint...it is beautiful..even more so after the "bodywork" is done...

@tassie7325 3 года назад

I have to agree with your sentiment about covering up all of that beautiful wood crafting with paint. But just as you will apply paint to your car(s) when the work is done, in order to protect the build material, I guess a boat needs the same level of protection. Its just that the base material is so much more aesthetically pleasing in a boat than in a car 😎

@theancienteternaloaktree 3 года назад

@@tassie7325 because this is a historical restoration, more or less, the off-white has to go over it. But on a lot of modern smaller watercraft, you can use a clear epoxy to show off the wood, while still protecting it. And I agree, it most certainly DOES look better that way.

@daviddickmeyer5231 3 года назад

Leo and Pete, as a retired former clay sculptor with General Motors, I have done my fair share of fairing (we call it highlighting). My hat goes off to you guys doing it in hardwood! And to my eye I’d say that you both are doing a beautiful job. Cheers to your shoulders (as I hold up a nice glass of scotch)!

@garyjonah22 3 года назад

Leo , I'm most relieved to see that she's nearly watertight now, and looking so beautiful. I've been worried all this time that the Cascadia fault might pop at any moment (sod's law) and send her to the bottom. But now, when it does go, you and your trusty crew'll be able to ride her on the tsunami all the way to Port Townsend, thus saving the undoubtedly high moving costs. By my reckoning, you'll get from Sequim to Port T in about 23 minutes, along with the shed and all your bits and pieces. And, you'll be able to wave to the neighbour and the County jobsworths as you go past. Don't forget the parrot though. You can send it ashore to look for olive branches (or whatever they have in those parts) later on.

Hey Up Pal! I can almost imagine, Tally Ho, tied up in Port Townsend, early morning with a bit of steam off water, sitting on her deck, and having a hot cup of Tetley’s watching the sun break the horizon. Nice work Team. Keep it up Pete, camera shyness is bout gone Bruh.

The shadows cast by the planks at 3:21 certainly show the beneficial effects of early fairing the hull. Looks great after just a few passes of the planer.

Hello Leo et al , A beautiful boat , great courage and perfection to shoulder the task. Please honour both your heritage and that of Albert Strange and consider a "Gardner Diesel" your boat deserves the everlasting quality , justice and royalty of a Gardner, which , as opposed to Kubota junk , they run for ever . Should the window of opportunity present itself , please take a few minutes to view a Utube channel called "Western truck and tractor repairs ranting about kubota" . this man is from Klamath Falls with 40 years diesel repairs . Kubotas are disposable junk , your electronics and generator peripheries can still be utilized . Installing a Kubota on your magnificent craft would be a a tremendous shame. Love your show, been an an adherent since you began . Tremendous respect for you , your boat and your craftsmen. You are already a living legend . Long live Leo and his beautiful boat ( Gardner included of course ).
