Bamboo Proa - Episode 01
มุมมอง 29K3 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a series of videos demonstrating the building of a bamboo, pacific proa. Both processed and raw bamboo is used in its construction, together with fiberglass and "green" epoxy resin. I hope you enjoy the process as much as I have.

Wow that's beautiful. I wouldn't care if floats or not. Some people like building out of original or natural materials. Others build traditional craft from carbon fiber. Bamboo is sort carbon fiber in a sense.
que material é essa chapa? é bambu? Sou do Brasil
Hi, is there a fourth episode ?
2 years after i find this good video made with care, amazing how simple and fast polynesian boatbuilding is, and nontoxic and how has been largely ignored
Uau
Please if you're still alive show us the next episode!
Love the soundtrack
I am very impressed by your creative use of your material and your craftsmanship! A beautiful Proa. Will you be showing a video on how well she sails?
In documentary "The Last Sailing Canoe of Mokil" in 15:01 you can see there is a two massive beams. You don't have them :( btw Nice build what is the finally ? I want to build bambo for my self.
is he dead?
Totally enjoyed your video and really really loved the music with it , fantastic video mate , awesome build ,love it. 👍
Please tell me in which country is this happening?
in which country?
Boa noite tudo bem? O senhor está em que país ou local ? Eu estou estudando o bamboo como um material e na sua viabilidade na construção uma embarcação de 44 pés e pelo que vi o senhor conhece mais deste material do que eu então poderíamos trocar informações?
Please update with a sea trial. Enjoyed watching your videos.
Beautiful. What glue were you using in that gun?
Bravo 👏 thanks for shearing.
Bamboo sections are burned during some Balinese Hindu ceremonies. Indeed it makes a nice pop when it explodes.
You are cool man! Looking forward to seeing continue! Boat looks very beautiful!
This is great. Bamboo is so easily replenished. Anyone with a piece of land can plant it and it will thrive.
One day...I will own land.
its fantastic idea Adrian, thank for show me this.
more video please! love them
Why did you take the bamboo strip roll apart? Wouldn't it have been easier to just keep together?! Great video btw. Lots of details :) Thanks!
Thanks !
Thanks !
Very good gob!!! I want see what you have on whis time.
Sweet dog too!!
Cats bamboo sailing canoes!! 👍
Thank you for the vid. Very informative.a lot of foam inside explains to me why 2mm thick bamboo can be enough fir sides. How much glass epoxy you added from inside and outside because looks like quite significant component for adding strength of vaka.
Great project, please consider having a look at th-cam.com/video/GSBh77bjz_Q/w-d-xo.html (Advoko MAKES TH-cam channel) he describes a method for recycling plastic bottles which would be perfect (possibly superior) for the binding material you are using on your Proa consruction.
Thanks Dan, yes Max is great love his channel :)
This might be helpful to know. Just have a look at it. th-cam.com/video/7PLyeosEEZw/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/Iyuc9_d-vIQ/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/TN1bl8Dun-I/w-d-xo.html I wish you all the best for this project and look forward to the next episodes of it.
I have seen a few vids on YT about engineered bamboo, it is amazing stuff. Very interesting project Adrian. Looking forward to seeing how it goes; the hull looks like a knife, that will slice through the water very nicely.
A few years ago I saw an article on youtube about some aspects of bamboo technology in Japan, dunno how you'd find it.
Wow Adrian, what a great project. Really really nice build. Thank you for the learning experience.
Well done video. I had just dug up my copy of Dierking's book and was contemplating the possibilities of a stitch and glue hull when I decided to search videos. Best of luck with your bamboo version. It's beautiful. How heavy is it at this stage? Are you planning to use bamboo yards for a crab claw rig?
Excellent. I've been playing with this idea for a while but never actually got round to doing anything about it.
Yes there are two kinds of people in this world , talkers and doers , some just talk and others actually do it . 👍
Thanks for the bamboo bend info. Very useful for all outriggers canoe boatbuilders in the tropics. thanks again!!
Great to know this was helpful :)
Wow, thanks so much.
Excellent, Adi keep up the good work 👍🙂 did you think of bending them over a trench of charcoal? Perhaps you could have done them all at once and been able to go off returning to lower them as the coals burn down, my concern would be needing to turn them for even heat
Thanks Kev, yes that's how its done traditionally, they also pour hot sand into the culms to avoid kinking the bends.
Fantastic! I’m transfixed, having perused Haddon & Hornell for years, I’m now getting acquainted with the detailed construction. Proas rule.
Thanks for the recommendation John. My fascination for the Proas came from watching a video series by Buckminster Fuller called "everything I know " The full series I don't think is on TH-cam any more but I found a transcript of where he describes the water people and Proas. His insights are remarkable. I recommend starting at www.bfi.org/about-fuller/resources/everything-i-know/session-4 then scroll daown to Part 6 and read from there :)
@@aquasol2121 thanks so much for this! I’ll review! Yeah, saw Fuller speak in person in ‘79, while I was in archit. school. He was amazing. To this day a big fan of tensigrity & domes.
@@johndate1776 Amazing, If there is one person who I could choose to have met from the past, I think it would have been Bucky :)
+1 cool
How do you bended the bamboo yakos to be connected in that smoth curve to the ama? Your job is incredible, but the hull isn't too flexible?
Many thanks, in the next video I will show how to bend the bamboo. I use a heat gun and a simple jig to hold the shape and then fiberglass. I have just got to finish editing it, so hopefully this weekend I will post.
Great stuff Adrian, many thanks for sharing. Is it just one layer or bamboo? amazing to think how light this is going to be.
Yes I used just the one layer of bamboo with fiberglass on both sides. but it is very flexible. I have bulkheads at 30cm intervals that are filled with PU foam and that provides the additional support required. To build a larger craft it likely require more layers of bamboo and fiberglass.
Great video,keep it up!⛵↗️
LOVE it! So awesome. What do you think about the Harry Proa? I'm very interested in building one.
Thanks James, my inspiration to build a proa was partly influenced by your trip to Rapa Nui :) I'm a complete novice at this, a good person to ask is Rael Dobkins, he has built several and is currently on his 4th build I think. He has a really kool channel and have leaned a lot from him. th-cam.com/channels/d9ghqB2aRAO6aL9ZAOHKMA.html
I just watched a video of a Harryproa th-cam.com/video/wftyqI2aJlo/w-d-xo.html Wow that thing is a beast :) Amazing shunting solution for the gig. Very Kool.
Not much going the reverse from the long proven pacific proa... ama to windward is foolish
Great info! Thanks!
Great video! Understanding bamboo thanks 2u! Lovely build, some cool details too, love the mast step... That Ridgeback seems like keen crew....... happy u joined the proa gang. Keep Shunting broer, Balkan Shipyards.
Dankie broer. Haha yes he is my quality inspector, Rufus spent so much time watching what I was doing I think he could build one :)
Some really interesting information in that episode, love the idea of a volcano alarm 😀
Yes its quiet ingenious and fortunately once the volcanoes become dormant the replanted planted bamboo tolerates the ash as long as it gets regular rainfall.
Very well done! I have a very strange question...the processed bamboo...how the hell do they get it so thick and straight and would you be able to duplicate it?
Hey! hope you guys are enjoying your trip and thanks for the goodies, your cap features in the next vid :) Good question, its hard to explain but in a later video I will show you how, but basically they split flatten and plane the strips.
@@aquasol2121 awesome!
Great project! Where do you get a roll of processed bamboo?
Thanks Frank, locally we have a bamboo importer and wholesaler Brightfields here is a link to the product www.brightfields.co.za/bamboo-board-cladding also see my reply to Tom H, hopefully you should be able to find a local supplier where you are?
