    I see this is an old posting, but I'm hoping you are still watching. Nice build, and with some very helpful tips on the process. I am thinking about scratch building the nesting version of this boat, because I would like to make it as light as possible. I keep a sailboat on my Puget Sound mooring in the summer and with the pretty cobbly beach and our up-to-15 foot tides, it's easier to walk a dinghy down to the water on my back than to use a dolly. I'm also planning to do the nesting version, so that it might fit on the deck of my Flicka. As I look at other builds, the boat seems very stout, maybe more than necessary, especially with the added laminated bulkheads for nesting. What do you think about reducing the plank thickness to 4mm instead of 6 mm? I think the bottom, transoms, and the bulkheads would be 6mm (doubled for nesting).

    Great project. One thing I have learned about Charles Limbert furniture is that he didnt use butt joints on his panels, tops etc. He used a very small 1/16" tongue and groove joint. It was only about 1/16" deep and about 1/8" wide. I think he did it to help keep the boards together.

      I built a Gatton CNC, which I did not film, because I was floundering my way through it. I then drastically improved it with stiffeners and I'm planning on implementing linear rails instead of v-bearings and aluminum angle. I'm in the middle of 3D printing custom dust extraction parts because the entire enclosure is in my son's bedroom, which he only uses one night a week.

    @lars20th Год назад

    I really appreciate your suggestion to make small fillets for the transoms and then remove the copper stitches. The official manual asks us to fillet over the stitches, which to me sounds a bit lazy. Also starting with small fillets seems like a great opportunity to make a small batch of the thicker filleting mix and test it there.

    • @MidnightMaker
      @MidnightMaker Год назад

      Yes, I call it the tack weld method. It also makes it easier to make the larger, long, smooth fillets later, after the boat is immobilized.

    • @MidnightMaker
      @MidnightMaker Год назад

      Sorry, I don't remember. CLCBoats.com has a bill of materials for what you need to build each of their boats. You can buy just a sheet or two at a time and cut out the parts that fit those. It's a way of self-financing a build that tends to be pretty long anyway.

  • @chrisdixon7305
    @chrisdixon7305 3 года назад

    Thank you for your video. I can comment on your laminated skids on the bottom of the hull. I just finished repairing a boat where the skids were thicker than the bottom plywood. They tore out some hull veneer at the forward ends, likely from weight on the inside of the boat flexing the bottom, and the plywood hull being more flexible than the skids. I tapered the thickness of the replacement skids for eight or ten inches so they went from full thickness to thinner than the hull plywood. I also made them longer than the originals, so they ended further forward on solid plywood, rather than the patched area from the previous skids. I'm confident that they will not damage the hull plywood as the bottom flexes.

    @jonjensen6745 3 года назад

    Hey! I'm just about to start this same build actually. I'm wondering why you epoxied the planks before you stitch them. Wouldn't that make the planks more rigid and also crack the surface of cured epoxy you just finished? Just seems like those planks need to be flexible first in the stitching/shaping phase and then epoxied into rigidity afterwards no? Love the video though, I've watched it many many times the last couple years dreaming of when I would finally get to start this project. The time has come! I'm on the forums as "JonnyRubiks" btw.
