Acorn To Arabella · video

¿Qué cubre este video?

The crew of the wooden boat *Arabella* fits and shapes a new main mast step, using a plywood pattern to mark and notch the bronze floor timbers.0:52 To prevent structural damage from downward force, the mast step is trimmed to nestle into the hull without wedging against the frames.1:33 After verifying the fit, the team transfers the measurements to the final timber, cutting notches to accommodate the floor timbers.5:26

To ensure the hull has not shifted since the removal of the construction molds, the crew strings a center line from the Samson post and uses a plumb bob to verify alignment at midship, the engine area, and the chain locker.16:36 They also use a string and bubble level across the beam to confirm the boat remains level.17:48 The project moves toward spar fabrication, with plans to repurpose a mast from the vessel *Victoria* for the mizzen and construct a new main mast.22:27 The team also introduces a weekly email newsletter to notify followers of new content and merchandise releases.24:19
