O que este vídeo aborda
Planking progress on a 50-foot custom boat requires cutting a straight center line down the hull to allow port and starboard cedar strips to meet.1:15 Johan uses a track-mounted plunge saw to achieve this, securing the track with wedges and drilled holes to ensure a 90-degree cut.4:36 The stern section remains open, requiring approximately 10 to 11 additional strips to close the hull.2:16
To secure the remaining materials, Johan travels to the northern part of the island of Öland to source western red cedar.9:21 These trees, planted in the 1880s, were harvested following storm damage.14:35 Because the trees are younger than the old-growth timber previously sourced from British Columbia, the planks contain more knots, requiring careful selection for the hull.15:03 Johan purchases two cubic meters of timber for $1,000, intending to use the knot-free sections for the hull and the remainder for deck beams or stern components.19:49
Properly aligning the track for the center-line cut prevents angled edges and ensures structural integrity when joining hull planks.4:49
