O que este vídeo aborda

Joshua is restoring a 32-foot wooden boat built in 1966, currently located in a forest in southern Canada.0:55 To prepare for structural reframing, he is scraping decades of old paint from the interior hull to inspect the timber and identify rot in the bilge stringers.1:26 He constructed a DIY water level using clear tubing, barbed fittings, and food coloring to measure the hull's alignment and determine how much the vessel has deformed from its original shape.4:19 By comparing the water level against the boat's waterline, he discovered the hull is misaligned by 5/8 of an inch.20:11 He plans to use this measurement to guide the process of pulling the boat back into its correct shape before installing new frames.21:05 He is consulting with a director from a wooden boat school to develop a plan for removing the deck and structural members, such as the sheer clamps and stringers, while bracing the hull to prevent spreading.14:30
