I am respectfully envious of your work. In the infancy of my first boat building project I seek inspiration here, and there is great comfort knowing we (fellow boaty people) share the passions, curiosities and the reasons behind them. Without pressure, please, do keep going.
I have, it's a John welsford designed Scamp, we plan to move in the next couple of years to a property with a workshop, so I can't yet start anything big until we do, I have eyes on your fiddlehead for my next possible project. I took an inflatable kayak on a lake on the Isle of Wight and loved it, but I felt a wooden craft would have felt more "right"
@@chrisleggatt3240 I hadn't heard about the SCAMP before, so I just looked it up. It's quite a charming boat! Looks very capable for its size, too. I hope you'll find a place with a workshop soon, and until then dreaming and thinking about boats and workshops isn't too bad either. :-)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. One of the things I find hard to get my head around is the grains of the timber. For example, which type to select for different part of the boat structure. Just subscribed and hope to learn more.
Hi Joseph. Thanks for watching! I've made a video a while back about finding good boat wood: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-N1tipBNVFgA.html Perhaps it can be helpful for you. Cheers, Mikkel
