In this installment we get some much appreciated assistance and really motor along with the oak planking. With three of us in the shop two could work on Arabella while the third picked timber and made planks.
We procure some big ole logs that we were told was walnut but turned out to be ash (still usable!). Grandpa fires up the old Massey Ferguson and smooths the wood yard road in preparation for the sawmill to arrive.
We pile up the next round of saw logs and Aaron drops his first tree, a big pine tree that recently lost it's top.
As always, thanks for following our crazy journey!

Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building their own 38' wooden boat in their backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and beyond-sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
