Acorn to Arabella - Journey of a Wooden Boat - Episode 33: Getting Help with Bow and Stern Timbers

Despite the arrival of Spring, weather just doesn't seem to want to let up. We've been struggling with the weather so as to start painting the keel timber and the ballast keel. With temps too cold to work on that, we switch gears and start working on the Bow and Stern timbers. Everything is a step forward! We also got help from one of our patrons who came all the way from Colorado to help for the week. Thank you Ryan!! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up for our email newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hn3Qyv Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building their own 38' wooden boat in their backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and beyond—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW US: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acorntoarabella Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/acorntoarabella/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/acorntoarabella Website: http://www.acorntoarabella.com
