Acorn To Arabella · βίντεο

Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

To construct the forefoot of the wooden boat Arabella, the crew steam-bends three two-inch-thick oak planks to create a continuous, grain-aligned structural member.5:41 The forefoot joins the keel timber to the bow assembly, requiring high strength to withstand impact forces.3:01 By steam-bending the primary laminations, the builders avoid short grain run-out and the structural weakness of multiple scarf joints.5:24 The team fabricated a custom steam box and boiler from a repurposed steel tank and a wood stove.1:34 After steaming the planks for two hours, they clamped the timber around a pre-built mold, achieving the required arc with minimal spring-back.9:00 To complete the assembly, the crew shaped an additional oak piece with a dished profile to match the curve of the bent laminations, allowing for easier attachment of the final straight-grained nose pieces.10:43 This method ensures the grain follows the curve of the timber, providing maximum structural integrity for the bow assembly.10:26
