Installing the Fashion Pieces (Rebuilding Tally Ho EP61)

[@SampsonBoatCo]

What do you guys think of the new Outro, featuring Pancho??? Also, make sure you check out Rowans video ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnmop3iurJh4icU ) and thanks to Wayward Jane for the music ( waywardjane.com/about/ )

Would she go for food positioned just below the lens? Otherwise is is excellent.

[@soldtobediers]

''Pancho's Outro & Cameo's'' calmly fit's, to a balancing tee, the truth that the ''Master Craftsman Himself'' had stated in Mat. :25-34 & Luke 12:22-32 Wayward Jane & Rowan both seem to whisper a smile; knowing all about the place.

[@lorriedmussett4692]

Leo's choice of music is so uniquely his. No matter the genre.....every song sets the right mood thru out the video!

[@michaelgemmer2806]

A playlist would be really cool.

[@JizzyDizzler]

I love the confidence of a man to edit a video and leave in the clips of him drinking coffee. A lot of people edit that out, but it humanizes the insane amount of effort you are putting it. I wonder how many cups have gone into her so far! Keep up the good work, love the videos.

[@deanehill9730]

Pancho adds to the variety of this channel. You do amazing work and you certainly know how to use tools. Keep having Cecca included.

[@steven-tb9eq]

Leo, If I was ten years younger I'd come up and lend a hand. It warms my heart to see such old school craftsmanship. You're a joy to watch. Thanks, Steven

[@anomalous1331]

Get up there Steven. You might just surprise yourself and everyone else, but certainly won't regret it.

[@gr1mrea9er82]

Leo... you and Tally Ho have become supporting cast in this endeavour. This is now the Francesca and Pancho show!

[@BulletproofPastor]

I really enjoy watching Pancho 'supervise' your work. She's an enjoyable side track to watching this incredible restoration. Great job.

This project takes the word “ custom” to a whole new level . Tally Ho ! 👍🍻

[@henrybalkestahl9812]

Another fantastic episode!! Myself and Freja (six years big) are really enjoying the channel and we watch an episode most nights going to bed. Tonight we just realized that the fashion pieces are bigger on the inside of the boat compared to the outside! Slowly but surely building a much deeper understanding of classic boats in general and obviously Tally Ho in particular! Massive thanks to everyone that makes this project possible!!! Leo you'r an absolute star!!

[@nicholaspetrish8383]

Great memories. When I was in HS, i was a wooden boat builder apprentice at Freya boat works in Anacortes back in the late 70s. We built the Sophia Christina. 42 foot double masted schooner.

[@video3ish]

So great. No stupid music, no one wanting their ego stroked, no bravado. Just an amazing young man using hands with dedication. Im not into boats yet i cannot stop watching these.

[@itsmyBBQ]

Very humble of you to include your mistakes mate, it is hard to imagine the scope of this project and the various self imposed pressures of being a Craftsman. Beautiful work

[@tedbownas2748]

Pancho is nearly as delightful to watch as the boat's progress. It's great that she's such a calm and sociable bird. She just chills out and watches what's going on around her.

What makes a man from North Georgia watch a Yankee boat builder rebuild a hundred year old sailing vessel? Superb craftsmanship at it's best that's what. Leo I'm sure many look forward to your next video. Your hair dresser is great.

I am a hobbyist knife maker, and I swear I am amazed at the amount and size of the purple heart beams I'm seeing in this construction. Seriously, a 3" x 10" board is the biggest I have ever seen before and you have a whole effen tree for the keel. Amazing!

[@markdavis2475]

I'm a dedicated follower of fashion--pieces!

[@Gottenhimfella]

I thought it was great that the trenails acted as a "fuse" protecting the actual fashion pieces. Effectively, it seems to me they absorbed enough of the kinetic energy on arrival at the scene of the crash (in breaking as they did) that the important surrounding pieces could handle what was left. If they had been stronger, (metal dowels, say) they might have transferred enough energy into the fashion pieces to split them.

[@davidbrown8365]

Sublime music and editing. Happy that no people or dogs or birds were injured by the fashion piece.

[@pbraun2102]

I just watched the launch video today (27 April 2024) and remembering how it was so difficult to imagine TH ever making it to the water at this point... and yet, today it is! Also, I've forgotten how much time in the early days Leo spent working all by himself on this, which really blows my mind.

A man, A MAN, decided to rebuild a sailing ship. Who would have know it would so inspiring and entertaining to rebuild a ship? Leo, my hat's off to you. You're crazy/brilliant, my friend. Everytime is see that beautiful lady you're restoring, I see you at the helm and steering her into a tropical sunset. Thank you for sharing this amazing journey!!!

Hi Leo i am Dave from Jersey UK Channel Islands, and have watched the build from beginning to now. My trade is Joiner/ Cabinet maker. I have to say you are the most highly skilled boat builder i have seen, By marking out and restoring to a high standard as the old timers would have done, but you and your team are going one step more by building to a high finish. Well Leo i will be watching all the way to the finish carry on with the fantastic work and give my regards to Poncho.

[@23coburn]

You are a force of Nature Leo. Tenacity like the sun and moon, you just keep doing it, literally dawn til well after-dusk. It's a shining light this vessel. Glad to see you still have the assistance of so many good people, including of course that damn good woman. (Samantha?)

[@23coburn]

The piano after Poncho is lovely and compelling, thank you Madam Tally Ho can be described all kind of ways, of course. by "shining light" I could have also called her a Song. A long, song to be sure, but the Haiku version no doubt will be when you're sailing her. At this stage of completion one can imagine her lift over the first wave beneath her keel after so many years. She creaks and mutters a bit as she adjusts her great pile of living-parts, then rises gamely to meet the next one. Okay, enough of this malarky, I'm veering dangerously close to the anthropocentric. Thanks Shipwright!

[@johnkingston7244]

There is something utterly and timelessly beautiful about a traditional boat in frame, and with your workmanship and camera skills you have captured it perfectly. Well done. Only a couple of pairs of frames needing adjustment? Precision work Leo!

It's really amazing seeing her with all her frames and stern in, and thinking about all of the work that went in to taking her from her original state to here. She's gorgeous even as she is, but it's exciting to know that she's not even close to being finished.

I haven't seen all your episodes Leo but I have seen a lot and I watch them with fascinated admiration - for your persistence, your skill, your knowledge of the work, your versatility. determination and your reaction to adversity. When things go wrong you are at your best. Of course, giving up on the project is unthinkable but you need to call upon your resources of spirit and optimism sometimes and somehow you come shining through. I would have loved to be involved at some point but that's not going to happen so I shall admire from afar and follow your progress to its conclusion. You've had some great help there and the guys who have done their various bits seem to have had an absolute ball helping. Power to your elbow Leo.

I am sure you can appreciate it when I tell you that watching your videos is somewhat like going into a time machine for me. To watch you do things that were done long ago in the same manner in which it was done in that time. Most people of today have no clue how most things today are built let alone in the time that this sailing vessel was built. And this is just one example of the things that were built in that time. I have worked with my hands all my life and have always enjoyed doing it. I always felt a great deal of accomplishment and pride when a project is done and see what my efforts have produced. And all the those things combined in my life would not add up to the accomplishment this project of yours is. And I have built large homes with the help of my son and two other men. I am proud of the things I have built over my many years and am still doing at 76 but I honestly feel it all pales in comparison to this wonderful project of yours.
