Building a Longship part 3: the keel

[@tomkelsey7226]

My Grandfather was a Blacksmith, and I built Chesapeake Bay Deadrise boats. You put thought, care and meaning into your work. Thank you for sharing that!

[@ThePathOfFire]

Very cool!

[@maxmason6053]

As a retired master carpenter and cabinet maker of 45 years I truly admire your talent , skill set , and devotion to steel and woodworking. Never forget your passion and never sell out to it.

Your work with the plane brings back memories of the woodshop telling me "the shavings should look like paper; yours look like yours look like young boards." You're doing better with that block plane than I did with a bigger one. Nice job and appreciate your fortitude and craftsmanship.

I was looking for a tutorial on how to remove rivet screws off a Zippo, but there is no wrong knowing how to build a viking-era ship! Hail Odin!

[@rokitman5753]

She's good with the wood 🚣‍♂️

[@neildisciple9979]

I do a lot of wood work professionally and I cannot imagine setting up cameras and trying to document it all! Nice job on these videos!

[@ThePathOfFire]

Thank you. Thank you so much for noticing this. It means a hell of a lot

[@swervature]

That's insane how wormy and knotty (giggity) that one slab was. I know everything would go quicker if you weren't stopping to change the camera placement every so often, but I appreciate that you do to show what it is exactly that you're doing. Looking forward to the rest of these. I started in the middle so now I'm having to backtrack to catch up, lol.

Here’s a tip when marking a measurement at the point use a V you’ll see it’s the best if you want one can leaning towards the left or right indicating what side of the line is waist and what to be used. You know the inside or outside of the blade

Guten Tag aus South Carolina. Love your channel & your work. Thanks for keeping tradition alive.

[@ThePathOfFire]

Thanks for watching!

[@tomcline5631]

Just a suggestion,try to find yourself a scrub plain. Some have a convex iron and some have a lesser atch convex are almost serrated. Will make rough plaining so much easier! Check at flea markets etc. If your local Lowe's or whatever hardware store you have might have one if they have a decent handtool aisle. It would make this whole process so much easier on yourself. I've done a lot of sign carving out of rough sawn,and just plane rough wood and a scrub plain will save you hours.

[@tomcline5631]

Oh shit! Never mind... You have a plainer/surfacer!

[@ThePathOfFire]

Thanks for the tip!
