Qué cubre este vídeo

Louis Sauzedde continues construction on a TotalBoat work skiff, focusing on fastening bottom planks to runners and installing chamfered guards.8:35 To secure the bottom planks, he drives square-cut nails using a pin maul, alternating between nails and boards to prevent the wood from popping up and to ensure a tight fit against the runners.3:24 He emphasizes keeping the hammer handle low to the floor to avoid bending the nails and uses the hammer’s weight to drive the heads flush below the surface without dimpling the wood.3:56 For the guards, he cuts a 45-degree chamfer along the bottom edge using a circular saw, clamping the wood to sawhorses to prevent sliding during the cut.9:01 The project remains in progress, with upcoming tasks including installing cap rails, mounting a knee in front of the outboard motor, and bolting the transom corner posts.0:50 The builder plans to finish the guards and rails with oil to highlight the wood grain.1:35
