Hi Guys if thats only a box section why don't you just drill the hole in the front face and not underneath it would be easier to weld up later or put a plate on Regards from Liverpool

@SavingMaverick55 4 месяца назад

A lot of purists would crap on your extensive use of laminated frames, but I recently spoke with a local shipwright whos restored numerous derelict vessels, and he wholeheartedly endorsed the practice. Not only is it stronger than solid timbers, but the epoxy adds rot resistance, and you dont have to be as particular about selecting perfect oak lumber in a day in age when it's becoming harder to find and more expensive than its ever been. It also often doesnt require steam bending.

@allenwade6087 4 месяца назад

I totally agree, after all ,sailing mast are now being glued together by using multiple pieces of wood and creating a super strong mast..Leo did it so be it…

@davidelliott5843 4 месяца назад

Leo’s frames were not exactly laminated but they were made in sections.

@sailorpete136 4 месяца назад

Replacing the ribs with laminated frames is best practice for strength and longevity, good point.

@SavingMaverick55 4 месяца назад

@@davidelliott5843 Tally Ho was built in the early 20th century when it was still common practice to build boats with multi part sawn timber frames. Leo opted to also use that construction technique on his rebuild instead of using steam bent or laminated frames which is why he had to find and restore an old beveling shipwright bandsaw.

The Mud 3000 is brilliant. You two should be very proud of yourselves. Your ingenuity is amazing.

@bockusd 4 месяца назад

Very, but why not just drill from the side or top. Once done you could put an access port there. And it would be much easier to seal. Just my opinion.

@peterbrameld696 4 месяца назад

I have sent you a little donation for no other reason that I respect how hard you are working and what lovely people you are. I really admire your determination and the attention to detail, thank you so much for all the entertainment you give me.

@rogersillence5798 4 месяца назад

Another great solution to potentially massive problem, your inventiveness knows no boundaries. The only suggestion for the exhaust fixings would be to replace the standard round washers with 50mm square repair plate/washers. It'll help spread the load inside the boat and in the exhaust. But again, you guys are awesome and i love watching the progress

entry to the exhaust-needs must bloody ingenious Simon well done

@dunkshome 4 месяца назад

If you are going to need to drill additional holes in the exhaust, would it not be easier to cut a hole in the top of the exhaust? That way far easier to weld a plug back in and grind flat, rather than trying to weld upside down in the mud. Second the new plug will not be sitting in the bottom of the exhaust covered in salty water. Just a thought. Great work :)

@davidelliott5843 4 месяца назад

To be honest, I would have gone through the top of the exhaust and made some neat bolt on covers to seal the holes. You could weld but bolt on covers give easier access in future.

@sclurgess 4 месяца назад

Did you not watch the video. They explained what they plan to do and it isn't welding

@erlixerlix7573 4 месяца назад

I would have gone through the side and then weld the drilled out plate back in place.

@rynait 4 месяца назад

@@erlixerlix7573 that is my preferred technique. drill with longest drill bit go through all way. other side enlarge for bolt head; 2 cm?. if you needed "more longer bolt". weld nut on threaded rod make head. Use socket head with long extension rod to hold head in place...

Simon Robins the premium tool inventor ! Great work again 👍

@53HB 4 месяца назад

Simon just an idea . To fix the exhaust hole fit a metal bar across the plate you have taken out thread a bolt through it ,weld the bolt to the bar . Then place inside the exhaust , attach plate to threaded bolt the tighten up with nut and washer from below . Exactly the same as you do with a hole in plasterboard . After the plate is in place seal the edges with liquid steel glue as that will seal it totally

@53HB 4 месяца назад

Just had a further thought to stop the original plate pulling through you would need to weld steel washers to the outer edge of the steel plate .not pretty but as out of sight no problem

@alfredbucket848 4 месяца назад

Due to the weight of that exterior exhaust, and the old fastenings being a bit beefier. I would suggest putting another filler block over that web frame, and then add a steel plate that covers the doubler and the upper and lower frames, making it a lot stronger. I live in the ... "lets over-do it once so I never have to do it again" camp. Love the videos, Chin up you two. Carry on.

@user-jn4gf3ek5r 4 месяца назад

The MudDrill 3000(TM) is absolutely brilliant!! I fully expected those exhaust 'boxes' were just that, box-like pieces that surrounded the round exhaust pipes outside the boat. I guess going to those square-ish exhaust pipes makes more sense, as it saves weight.

@loki7441 4 месяца назад

That drill gizmo is the Goats Toe. Patent it quick. Those hole saws can be a pan in the butt even on a drill press where you can see what you are doing. You can put a spring over the pilot drill to help eject the piece you cut out, or a piece of dense foam some times works. We used to use Rocol spray cutting compound on plate steel back in my younger days. About 5 years ago now.😄 Cools the drill and helps reduce the wear more than spray oil.

Weld that plug back into the exhaust. That metal is good and since it is steel, it should be weldable. Give a good cleaning to the area and have an experienced welder do the job. Simple and with a little grinding, no one will know the hole was there. Keep up the good work and congratulations on getting to the last frame in the engine room.

@robertalvarez6208 4 месяца назад

My thought on the exhaust would be to re-design the engine exhaust to go straight up as a smoke stack. . . . . just eliminate those side exhaust all together . . . . vintage boats like these need to be preserved indeed but they also need to be practical so they can last . . . for example, 2 famous WW2 mine sweeper that were re-purposed like Jacques Cousteau's "Calypso" or John Wayne's yacht the "Wild Goose" . . . . . the Wild Goose is doing very well these day although the Calypso has see it better days. . . . . . I think you have a treasure of history . . . Good Luke !!

@vancguy9204 4 месяца назад

I was thinking that as well. Those side boxes have all sorts of unnecessary issues.

@davidjones332 4 месяца назад

Those exhausts aren't original anyway. As far as I can see from pictures the HDML exhausts originally just discharged through the side of the hull. However, as Harbour Defence Motor Launches they weren't designed for open sea work, so these side boxes are presumably intended to minimise the risk of the engine being swamped.

@Mr_Spegru 4 месяца назад

ingenious device - in wood too. I would not have thought of that!

@samphillips8322 4 месяца назад

The exterior exhaust ducts must add significant weight as well as making it difficult to accomplish repairs to the structure as you continue aft from the engine room. At some point wouldn't it be practical to run a vertical exhaust up both sides and remove the old ducting? I see similar thoughts expressed by other viewers and am curious as to the reasoning. Your weekly is a "must" for me. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to seeing her underway with diesels running.

@bindatek8801 4 месяца назад

If you have a lot of holes in metal to make during the work, get a tin of "Rocol Cutting Grease" it smells strong, but it is amazing how the drills/cutters just rip through the metal!!

Getting there guys well done!.. the saw needs new brushes!. it will get to the point it just stops.. sort sooner than later as sparks will eat away the copper of the commutator.. one question are you planning on keeping the exhausts or are you later planning to take them out of the stern?... a couple of heat exchangers would be good to heat water.. keep up the good work..

@Sluf7 4 месяца назад

Great job Team as always😅. Your ingenuity knows no bounds 3000 is ingenuity at it,s best great idea 😂. Maybe use chimney sweep brush as ya can just keep adding poles as ya need and super flexible. The is serious steel. 😮 maybe add a rubbing strip along the exhaust entire length at some point. Don,t forget to cover hole up as exposed to the air like that will increase corrosion. Keep at it now....😅😊😊😊😊😊

@TR4zest 4 месяца назад

Wow. I did not expect the exhaust to be in that condition. Like the hull boards - amazing. I guess the paint on the outside of the exhaust and diesel oil from exhaust fumes on the inside have maintained it, despite the salt water. Your plan to add holes every few feet that will allow you to clean the exhaust out with a rodding kit is an excellent idea.

@mattpalmer5890 4 месяца назад

The Mud Drill 3000 ......... bloody brilliant!

@user-xv8sx9gm2e 4 месяца назад

Hi Simon and Gemma, more nice work as usual.I can see the exhaust diameter is quite large, so I'm not sure this would be viable, but , would it be possible to totally remove the steel exhaust and perhaps running the exhaust through the interior of the boat with rubber exhaust hose and out through the transom.

@berniecoles2337 4 месяца назад

When I saw the inside of the exhaust ducting I was worried about the flaking and thickness of the steel. That was until you showed the cutout at the end. You must have at least an 1/8th” of good steel there which shows how well she was originally laid up. Get a chimney sweep brush, clean the crap out and Sarinda’s exhaust fumes should keep the verdigris at bay. You’re getting there, stick to it and I can’t wait to see her slip her lines.❤️

@alstonofalltrades3142 4 месяца назад

You could have with your metal lathe and an old microwave transformer made a mag drill. But then the world would be a sadder place without the mad cap, highly effective, quicker and cheaper to make Mud Drill 3000. That was by far the best bit of this episode. TY.

@jabberwockytdi8901 4 месяца назад

If you have to fit bolts through the exhaust again , get a much longer drill for the 1st hole and go all the way through to the outer side as well, then you can open that up with a stepped drill to be able to fit the bolt through from the outside rather than underneath.

@HughMillington-yf4td 4 месяца назад

The thickness of the metal of the exhaust tunnels looks to be about 5mm. Why don't you try drilling and tapping from inside the hull. Using mastic and locking bolts to secure this trunking? You could then use unlimited numers of bolts at spacings to suit

@nicktomlin9137 4 месяца назад

A question for you two. I suppose you have to do the frame now. There is no way to do them once in a dry dock. Then you could lift the whole exhaust off, and you would need to drill holes in it. Also, where is the exhaust bolted on everywhere else. I can't remember you doing this anywhere else. Brilliant as always

@TheByard 4 месяца назад

Hi you two and what a surprise you found when looking inside the exhaust can, to be honest I was hoping it would be terrible and you had to remove them. I do think they spoil the lines of the boat, originally the exhaust would just come out of the side or be piped to the stern though the bilge area. The marine exhaust manifold would mix cooling water with the exhaust gas and the piping could be flexible and was never any problem on my 1930s boat. Maybe something you will do in the future when you have more time and money. Thanks for posting and I'm happy the metal box is A OK for you to continue.

@ShipHappensUK 19 дней назад

Wooden boats don’t like to be out of the water and dry out, it would cause a lot more problems than it would solve, also there is nowhere close that could lift her, and she isn’t strong enough to move yet, or lift, and above all that it costs a lot of money to be in a place like that!
