O que este vídeo aborda

Damien and Jess install custom-fabricated steel wings onto the hull of their converted fishing trawler, Brupeg. The project involves welding stainless steel hinges and doubler plates to the vessel's sides to support the wings, which are designed to fold against the hull.0:46 During the welding process, heat causes the stainless steel hinges to warp and bind, creating significant alignment issues.6:38 The crew discovers that using stainless steel pins within stainless steel hinges leads to galling, where the metal surfaces seize and flake under pressure.15:10 To resolve the binding, they plan to replace the stainless pins with mild steel or use mild steel bushings to prevent further seizing.15:47 The team uses a forklift and a chain block to maneuver the heavy wing assemblies into position for tack welding.21:50 Alignment remains critical, as the wings must be parallel to the water and properly indexed to the hinges to ensure smooth operation.13:17 Future tasks include building the wing arms, mounting winches, and installing stainless steel sliders.25:14
