Leo Goolden continues the restoration of the 109-year-old yacht Tally Ho by upgrading his shop equipment and sourcing structural timber for the vessel's centerline. He installs a helical cutter head from Bird on his planer, noting that the spiral blade configuration significantly reduces noise and improves finish quality when milling dense live oak.4:43 He also utilizes a Festool track saw to achieve precise, straight edges on large timber beams and to cut tight butt joints for frame futtocks, which prevents freshwater intrusion and subsequent rot.8:04 To address the difficulty of sourcing large, curved timber without "boxed heart"—the center of the tree that causes instability and checking—Goolden redesigns the stem and forefoot construction into smaller, more structural sections.13:39 He purchases $10,000 worth of purple heart timber from Edensaw in Port Townsend for these components.17:32 Additionally, he explains his decision to use double-sawn frames for intermediate sections, citing the lack of sufficiently swept timber to create single-sawn frames.19:48
