Acorn To Arabella · vidéo

Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Steve and Aaron install cedar hull planks on the wooden boat Arabella, focusing on the complex transition where the oak steeler meets the cedar planking.6:35 Because the frames are too narrow to support a butt joint, they install locust butt blocks to back the nibbed joints.6:57 To ensure precise alignment, they drill pilot holes from the inside of the hull before installing the blocks, then bed the surfaces with Dolphinite and secure them with bronze rivets.13:06 The crew chamfers the top edges of the butt blocks to prevent debris accumulation in the engine bay.8:17 After completing the initial spiled planks, they transition to narrower, straight-grained cedar planks, using a diminishing process to calculate plank widths at each station.15:33 They also perform knot repairs on the lower planks using graving pieces.17:27 Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the crew cancels their annual May open house but secures a bulk supply of bronze fasteners, epoxy, and paint from Jamestown Distributors to continue construction through the summer.21:47
