Louis Sauzedde demonstrates the assembly of a wooden skiff by springing the side planks against a single temporary station, a stem, and a transom.3:06 To manage a slight cup in the wide transom board, he uses bar clamps and water to swell the wood fibers, ensuring a flat, tight fit before permanent fastening.1:33 He mounts the assembly at a 42-inch working height to facilitate efficient construction.2:31 The process begins by dry-fitting the side planks to the stem and transom, drilling pilot holes, and then applying bedding compound before final attachment with 2-inch number 12 galvanized screws.5:11 He uses a bevel set and electric plane to tune the transom bevels to the planking angle.6:20 After securing the planks to the stem and transom, he uses a cross-brace to pull the midships beam to 5 feet 11 inches.8:01 The sequence concludes with plans to install chines and vertical framing before flipping the hull to complete the bottom and gunnels.8:06
