Qué cubre este vídeo
Garrett and Ruth build quarter knees and rub rails for a new wooden dinghy in their home workshop. To create the quarter knees, Garrett rips and glues alder stock to achieve the necessary width, then cuts a 13-degree falling bevel by hand after finding his chop saw’s limitations.▶ 0:19 He fabricates the rub rails by milling 7 1/8-inch by 1 1/2-inch strips down to 1/2-inch thickness, then joins them using scarf joints cut with a chop saw jig.▶ 3:25 The process includes using a custom mobile workbench with an integrated table saw to handle long timber.▶ 1:20 Once the components are glued and cured with epoxy, the pair installs the knees and rails.▶ 8:58 The project concludes with a test sail in the bay aboard a different vessel, accompanied by family members.▶ 10:26
