Covering Boards & Bronze Fabrication - Episode 221 - Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat

Decision time again! The toe rail, covering boards, and stanchion bases all have shapes that affect each other, meaning that we'll have to rely on Steve's depth of knowledge in bronze fabrication for custom stanchion bases—the ones salvaged from a decommissioned wooden sailboat won't work out. We load up Bob Emser's trailer, a big display of lumber organization indeed, so he can get started with building our wooden dinghy.

Steve started as an amateur boat builder building a 38' wooden boat in his 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 boatbuilding commands. This ultimate DIY wooden boat project will continue well past launch, when he and the crew 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you are interested in supporting/helping here are a few ways: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/how-to-help Acorn to Arabella's wishlist: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/wishlistpriority TotalBoat Referral: Need something TotalBoat sells?
