Building & finishing the SOLID TEAK Deck-house

I wonder how the weather stripping will be accomplished. I could see day light around it. If I can see that she'll be a wet and damp boat without it. I'm sure Leo will work his magic.

That Windo 3000 is a work of pure genius... The companionway hatch looks pretty good too 😉😂

[@demacherius1]

I like the windo 3000 to. I can understand Pat 100%. I made such a attachment to fasten legs on this small IKEA tables because my wife bought 10 or so for our house. I don't have time to screw them on by hand. 🤣

[@tonyurquhart8278]

YES! The WINDO 3000 is a definite winner!! May need a locknut for winding in reverse, Pat!

[@cpwright82]

I've got a Minimax combo jointer/planer and it is really tedious to move it 7" up and down when you go from jointer to planer. I'm inspired to replicate the Windo 3000. Seeing Patty grow as a shipwright is one of the great things about the recent episodes in this series.

Hey, I liked OCC, back when it was about bikes. It was basically the same show as Talliho. Guys solving interesting problems in interesting ways, documenting how they build bikes.

[@kennethellison9713]

I swear, after seeing hundreds of hours of boat building videos, this is the first time I've seen anyone use a professional paint brush to apply a finish. Congratulations Pat, you've restored my faith in woodworkers.

[@MikeAG333]

Then you have no idea how Le Tonkinois varnish works. It doesn't need careful application at all.

[@hartwiggrunewaldt5102]

What kind of "professional paint brush" is it? Please for more informations... thanks!

[@kennethellison9713]

@@MikeAG333 Yep, I have never used that particular varnish. But I have been a professional painter for over 20 years and have used countless types varnishes, stains, paints, lacquers, and coatings to know how tho properly apply them. And I know that foam brushes and small 1-inch throw-away brushes simply don't carry enough material to adequately cover large areas, they shed bristles and they are awkward to hold for larger jobs. The type and shape of bristle, the shape of the brush (angular, straight, round) and even the shape of the handle are all key to making the job not only look good when finished but to also make the job easier for the worker. My remark was simply regarding my observations of the many other builders, refinishers, restorers, etc. that I've seen on YT using improper paint tools. I'm sorry to have triggered you regarding Le Tonkinois varnishes. I'm sure it's a great product.

[@kennethellison9713]

@@hartwiggrunewaldt5102 I'm not exactly sure what brand he's using here (17:50), but it looks much like a Purdy 3" angle-cut nylon bristle. A professional brush will have large handle like this one, proper bristles for the type of material, trimmed and feathers bristles, and it will be large enough to carry the right amount of material to the work surface.

[@FiferSkipper]

I couldn't agree more! I can't stand watching people using rollers and foam brushes on varnish. There is no way for someone to point out how amateur they are, then for them to say they are going to "...roll and tip..." their varnish.

[@evanschwartz3030]

The new campanionway (deck house), as well as the rest of the boat, is an absolute thing of beauty. Having spent many years doing finished carpentry I can say with out question the workmanship is a supreme example of the 'artform'. I'm always pleasantly surprised and amazed there are still craftsmen around capable of achieving this level of workmanship. I know it's ultimately going to be used as a sailboat but given the degree of exquisite craftsmanship I would be scared to death trying to sail her in open waters.

[@antonoat]

This channel is just so good for the soul, the people involved and the things they create is in my opinion as good as it gets! Can't wait for this ship to one day sail to the UK, I'm sure there will be many of us to greet her and her crew! 😊😊😊

So nice to see Pat M. working on the hatch. He was my instructor at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding from 1999 to 2000. Doing beautiful work!

[@EleanorPeterson]

12:30 - Yes! First from my cabinetmaking days and then from when I built all-composite carbon-epoxy RC model gliders, I've always been amazed by the amount of clamping force the vacuum-bagging process can generate. Assuming a moderate partial vacuum of 10 pounds per square inch (easily achievable with a homemade system built from an old recycled fridge motor), veneering or laminating something the size of a dining room table top (say 8' by 4') would be a typical application. 8' x 4' is 4,608 square inches; once the vacuum is created you'll have 10 pounds of perfectly even pressure on every square inch - including any tricky-to-hold curved egdes - so the entire job would be under more than 46,000 pounds of clamping force.😳 Not something you can easily replicate with G-clamps, bags of sand, bricks, blocks of lead, or even a few tame elephants. And you don't have to reinforce the workshop floor, either. 🐘👀

It's like observing the steam coming of the top of a hot cup of tea. My hope is that there is a comfort for you in returning to your "home away from home." I have to admit, watching the `strength of build' in the entire Tally Ho, I just think that unless somebody "discourteously puts it on the bottom," then this ship will be round for a very long, long time. And what a cherished experience it will be for all who see it during its life, due to the `beauty of its build.' The hatch cover is just one of the many flaming examples of what I'm talking about. Oh yeah, welcome home! Cheers!

You know Ive followed this build from the start - I had a very confusing period thinking, well that's not the same boat it's completely re built, not being a boatie that was my thinking, I'm more a furniture restorer with a maniacal regard for preserving patina etc, then I got to thinking that you can't keep the original bits if this was going to cause someone to drown on the high seas, it would be like restoring an aircraft with original material and causing it to crash, my epiphany came when I realised you have actually kept the most important thing, the soul, spirit and history of the original boat, kudos to you, I'm not even religious but its resolved my internal conflict, I'm now really enjoying the videos and look forward to the re launch - cheers.
