Wooden Boat Building, Installing Walnut Floor and Margin Boards, S2-E44

In this episode (S2-E44) of The Art of Boat Building boat builder Bob Emser show how the margin boards fit next to the floorboard in the Haven 12 1/2. Installing the margin boards requires several cardboard templates to be made. In wooden boat building the margin board and floorboards make up the sole of the small yacht. The sole is constructed out black walnut board that require re-sawing and surface planing. Once the boards are fitted a mixture of danish oil is discussed and applied revealing the beauty of the black walnut wood. NOTE: I miss spoke in the video referring to boiled linseed oil as being heated. Boiled linseed oil gets it's name from the Medieval era, where linseed oil was boiled with lead oxide to promotes the hardening of the linseed oil by reacting with atmospheric oxygen. Heating shorten its drying time. Today boiled linseed oil isn't actually a heating process, but rather the practice of mixing metallic dryers with the oil to make it dry faster. Raw linseed oil can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months to fully dry where as Boiled linseed oil take about 1 day. “If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.” -Bob Emser- Subscribe for more Boat Building from The Art of Boat Building: https://www.youtube.com/user/bobemser/featured?sub_confirmation=1 Will you buy me a cup of coffee? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/BobEmse Share this video with a friend: https://youtu.be/IUx_xbgOqH8 How to support The Art of Boat Building.
