EPISODE 85.
After a much-needed week off, we head back into the yard and begin the next stage of the rebuild - making and fitting planks! The last stages of the lining-out are completed first, and then templates are made and transferred to the wide boards of Wana that make up our planking stock. After the planks are cut they get various bevels before being hung and fastened to the boat!
Meanwhile all the planking marks are transferred to the other side of the boat, the knees get one last polish, and we mill up some Purpleheart to be used for Butt Blocks.

i like hom american power plugs are designed to pull apart under accidental tension as a sort of safety feature, british ones don't really do that

@Broken_Yugo 3 года назад

@@cliveramsbotty6077 It's not a safety feature, just part of the generally crap design. They don't pull apart easy when everything is high quality and new, the pins on the plug bend easy (often deliberately to make a tighter fit in a loose socket), and then damage the sockets when rammed in. Usually after the cord pulls out of the extension cord once the operator will walk over and tie the cords together.

I shudder went through me when took both hands off the saw while it was still spinning. Maybe it was the crap timbers I used to cut - but I have had saws grab and kick themselves up and out of the cut.

@tocboatman 3 года назад

Back at the start of this project it was normal seeing Leo undertake epic jobs entirely alone. Now I'm so used to seeing him with the team he's gathered around him it was odd to see him spiling, cutting and fitting that first plank on his own. Reminded me that Leo could do this whole project solo, it would be lonely though and it would take a great many years! I'm certainly grateful to Leo for introducing us to a lot of nice people and some great characters along with the boat building. "Hey Pete..." is a catch phrase that will live a long time.

@caleblyftogt1029 3 года назад

Adam, an old NASA trick by normal workers crew, was to just drop the cord (loosely) into a plastic square milk-crate. It never got tangled or knotted. note: the prong side was plastic pulled tied to the crate some 4' to reach a outlet, the rest pulled out to the electrical machinery.

watching makes me think of a poem call "The Builders" by Henry Wasdworth Longfellow. Here's part of it: Nothing useless is, or low; Each thing in its place is best; And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. For the structure that we raise, Time is with materials filled; Our to-days and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build. Truly shape and fashion these; Leave no yawning gaps between; Think not, because no man sees, Such things will remain unseen. In the elder days of Art, Builders wrought with greatest care Each minute and unseen part; For the Gods see everywhere. Let us do our work as well, Both the unseen and the seen; Make the house, where Gods may dwell, Beautiful, entire, and clean.

The sad thing is that also I have to wait for next episode now. I agree with so many others: This is the best RU-vid channel, and better than most professionally produced documentaries, that I have seen. The woodworking and ship building skills are outstanding, but also the explanations and video editing (including music selection) are so well done. I just love the team building, and all fascinating people we get to meet in this series. A side note: Now I know why my grandfather had so many wooden planers. Glad I kept them all now that I know how to use them.

Enjoy your series very much.

@southjerseysound7340 3 года назад

If you are seriously interested there's some amazing books on the subject and Dave Gerr's the elements of boat strength, for builders, designers and owners is one that I have found to be a great start. It's about 20 years old and is a lot easier to find then the stuff that is long out of print. It touches on the basics for all materials and explains it in realitive laymen's terms that you don't have to be a naval architect to understand. He's a well renowned naval architect and his books are considered to be some of the best out there and I'd have to agree. It's been one of the go to books at my family's marina as far as boat design goes and we've been building/restoring and modifying small and medium sized commercial boats and yachts for over 50 years.

This RU-vid series is not just a boatbuilding classic, but a video documentary that will stand for the foreseeable future: for the crispness and clarity of its explanations, the doggedness of its forward momentum, and the humanity of its participants. (Including the dog and parrot.) Not to mention the consistently well-conceived visual presentation. All of which are well worth a donation of modest size on up!

The first thing that was done on the signal bridge during the 04-08 watch at sea, was to polish brightwork starting at first light. Then the deck was swept and swabbed. In the pilothouse, the Boatswains Mate of the Watch (BMOW) would often put the messenger to work polishing brightwork for the QuarterMasters. You just have to love it!!!

Great to see the catch phrase "Hey Pete? Watcha Doin?" make a reappearance. Its corny but fun. Don't think you'd said it for a few videos? Or did I just fall asleep for those bits lately? and Petes wry smile & muttered expletive just cracks me up...

Superb Leo. My favourite update thus far . Groovy tunes culminating in the guitar chord and plank perfectly on her marks ....niiiiiice :-)))))

@markchiswell2537 3 года назад

Wow, 35 minutes has gone in a flash, as usual on my favourite RU-vid channel. It's looking great, and how nice to think you've got the first planks in place - it's come on leaps and bounds since episode 1!

Did he not take on a videographer a while back to help out with labour and free up some of his time ? Just being selfish I think wanting more episodes .

I have been watching. You really do exceptional work. I appreciated the time you spent to allow us to see the scarf of the replacement piece of the insect/sapwood repair. I am a hand plane sort of guy, in the extreme. What I did appreciate myself was finally seeing a good use of the hand power plane. You were fitting the strake at the stern and hand holding the free end of the plank. That would be nearly impossible with a hand plane and you made it look easy with the power plane. The bronze work looks a bit of over kill to me, but I suspect you know much better than I. The additional weight above the waterline..? Might that make her a bit more tender? You have likely figured that all out, but it does make me curious. I look forward to seeing many more episodes. You are a fine craftsman and you have developed a remarkable crew. My highest compliments.

Tally Ho is starting to look like a work of art with all that beautiful stained wood and polished bronze work.

I look forward to these more so than any other channel since I stumbled upon it a few months ago. I know jack at all about building a wooden boat, let alone rebuilding something in such despair as what you started with. Incredible eye for detail, patience and dedication, and just mass amounts of knowledge and developed skills. I appreciate the cinematography and editing on equal and proportional basis - extremely well filmed, organized and summarized with personal touches. That f**king parrot kills me - the cutaways of him should be remastered in Family Guy format. Amazing content through and through. Much appreciated, sir. Thank you.

16:31 when you know how to sharpen and set up a plane. :) 25:32 a purpleheart mallet because have it and care about your mallet. 26:29 working late because you are lead and the critical path in the way of getting your team going. 27:23 preventing tear out planing end grain. 31:02 "I hate to put my trust in glue" - The difference between a wooden boat builder and a composite boat builder (which is MADE out of glue). My favorite parts are watching the details of your work. :)

That mallet is amazing

@WJSpies 3 года назад

The new look to the videos holds the old theme format very well while refreshing the overall look & feel -- the islands music, steel drums highnotes, sounds very nice. It somehow reflects Leo's sailing past in the islands & spending so much time down there. I bet he misses it a lot, seeing him in past videos scuttling about aboard that schooner he mated on seems to show him in his truest element. All the while, the many videos of him taking scrupulous time & loving care woodworking as a shipright/boat-builder also show that other side of him & is great to witness. Nice series, good luck w/ everything now & in the future!

@Kathikas1 3 года назад

I think the steel drums are a giveaway to Tally Ho’s intended sailing grounds

@e.hidalgo5916 3 года назад

Dear Leo, I like it better when you are the one who (personally) makes and edit these videos. Thanks.

@108hindu 3 года назад

I doubt that any boat has ever been built that had more love put into it than this one. Leo’s love appears to be very infectious.

@chuckprichard3691 3 года назад

Larry Pardey built his with the same love.

@108hindu 3 года назад

@@chuckprichard3691 OK, I’ll change my statement to “this boat has had as much love put into is as any boat has in human history”. Now, all loving boat builders can claim at least a tie.

@Marko Either way, Tally Ho is going to be very, very high on the list of boats built to this standard. I hope to see her at anchor some day.

Leo it's on you to make the rest of the boat as nice as the metal work. Tell the guys great job on that. Put that along side a high quality varnished interior fit out. And you're gonna have one very classy girl.

@TomLeg 3 года назад

The shiny bronze is amazing! I guess you don't need any mirrors, with shiny bronze in every direction you look.

@thomasarussellsr 3 года назад

The "patch" piece on that plank could be called nothing short of a perfect fit. It almost completely disapeared once planed down to a smooth surface. The bedding seems a bit runny and gloopy, but it should definitely flow into any microscopic voids quite nicely. How much ends up on the ground as waste is another question, though. The fit on the first planks is really quite brilliant and tight. I love a good concurrent fit on a compound curved surface. Great work crew. The final polish and wax on the bronze looks absolutely stunning as well. Looks like gold instead of bronze, at least on my screen. Can't wait to see how much progress picks up, on the planking, over the next few videos. See y'all next time. Cheers and be safe and healthy.

@oikkuoek 3 года назад

Finally got to see this one..! Assuming that the rabbet is fair, you can also take it as a zero point, and transfer the measurements from side to side with strip of veneer. All and all looking good! Although using epoxy on a plank seam is never a good idea, but glues have come a long way since I've been sniffing them. Time will tell. Hoping those worms are not going to be a huge issue in the future.

@mikebiron7339 3 года назад

Love the building process. Been watching for a LONG time. I can't help but think now, how much does Tally Ho weigh? AND, what will She weigh when complete? WOW. I sure hope their is a crane big enough to move Her when finished. She will be finished, and She will sail again!!
