I remember seeing an old video from 50s showing couple Finnish men making a boat in the same way.

Thanks for the share. I made several similar way also using axe plus adz. lovely to see....I just judged depth, maybe i will use dowels because it sure is nerve wracking hollowing by feel and hopefullness. Plus i didnt widen mine, reluctant to try without knowledge of how my wood works with fire . Are the folks in the video working with white pine or what is it and was it felled live or was it a dead tree? . Interested to see thick pine tar applied then heated: I used liquid pine tar mixed with turpentine and linseed oil, also works amazingly well and I just mixed it cold. My next task will be outrigger i hope. Thanks again. Lovely to see diverse cultures, same essential idea . Thanks again for the post

"Happy People" is a russian film made (2008) by director Dmitry Vasiukov(NOT by Werner Herzog). Werner Herzog was never in the village of Bakhtia, I think that he was never in Siberia. Dmitry Vasiukov and cameraman real lived in the taiga(all the year round). The original film "Happy People" much much better and consists of 4 parts of 50 minutes: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter. The original film (in English) you can see on the official channel Dmitry Vasyukov kzbin.info/door/SgnRwJ2jYR7o_SXCwugbMQvideos

Does the tar makes it waterproof and rot-free? If I am in survival situation can I use tree (or fish) oils or smoke to make it waterproof?

Smoke will not do it. Tar will extend the life of it a lot. They probably used "homemade " birch tar. But even petroleum based tar will do it. Or Animal fat, preferably tallow, thinner oils, like fish,chicken or pork lard will not last long. All of these , and synthetic waterproofers will help a lot, but they will not fix the bigger cracks. Smoke was not really used here. It is the heat that makes the raw wood plyable, so they can bend it. After its shape was secured (sticks across) ,then it was dried to hold the "new " shape. Same as the steam bending of wood to make furniture, or snowshoes,etc.

Smoke used in fur tanning as waterproofing that's why I thought it can help. Oil will be fine it's good. I am not interested in syntetic waterproofers - only naturals. Thanks, Áron

Wath tree is used for these canoes ??

@charlesthompson7963 10 жыл бұрын

looks like birch or maple, both local. Just a guess.

@aleclitvinov 9 жыл бұрын

catumandos it's aspen (populus tremula). many boat builders across russia consider it the best choice for dugout canoes, because it's lightweight, easily cut and rot resistant.

In Finland they used aspen for that purpose.
