Troy, this is super interesting!!! Not just that you are showing us the steps to build a sailboat like this, but the things I am picking up that can be used on other projects that I need to build/rebuild around the house as well as use to build out the new interior of our boat… super informative and handy. Thank you sir!!!
I’ve built half a dozen small craft from plans and CNC pieces using stitch and glue. I really like the way you are approaching your project and may try to follow your excellent example. Cheers from FL. USA
I did have a kind offer to get them cut with a CNC machine, but I wanted to do this all simply so that people may follow who do not have access to such treasures..
Hi Troy, good to see you back in your boat building mode. Great to see the template techniques being used to enhance your build. All the best to you, Pascale and baby. From the UK.
You are so right..its all in the prep work. whether woodwork, painting, boatwork, etc. Glad to watch your boat build & looking forward to garden harvest as well. All the best from Ohio, US.
Great video documenting transferring points to a wooden template. The drawing outline, tools, technique, method. Using inexpensive tools to get accurate reproductions.
We decided to invest in Ryobi tools a few years ago as we needed to buy many and decided it would be a good choice because they are not super expensive if they do fail, however we have not had a single one go bad. Very happy with them so far also!
I's a really nice way to get symmetry, it actually diminishes work. BUT the hull forms around its stringers, which sit a bit outside of the frames. So millimeter accuracy is not required.
Great work Troy ,as a professional wood epoxy boat builder i can see that your skill level and approach are excellent, i have just ordered pathfinder plans myself so am excited to follow you build ,cheers.
Thank you very much. Please feel free to offer some advice if you see that there is another approach to things going forward. I am happy to see I made the same choice in boats as a professional builder.
Love your channel! I wonder how much it would cost to shop out all the boat pieces CNC cut to shape and delivered straight from the small scale plans.. and how much time could be saved and dedicated to other valued projects. That being said, what a pleasure to do it all
Started a business from a triton work bench 25 years ago Had to increase production so now use industrial machines to increase production Love your work
You can also glue the drawings you've made with the kraft paper directly onto the MDF and then cut the pattern and MDF as one.... No need to transfer any lines onto the MDF
Surely also once you have cut out one template.... if you need multiple parts that overlap... You could simply use the first template you've made to create multiples by tracing around d the template onto your ply... I mean the difference is only gluing on the paper or pricking holes in the paper ?
Pouncing takes a tiny fraction of the time of drawing. You still have the drawing in case of mistakes and can easily replicate a template many times over from one drawing.
@FreeRangeLiving I guess that's a fair point... If you had many of the same boats to build rather than one off.. P.s. love you guys and your channel Your videos inspired me to own my own Clansman which I now do 👍
I like corded tools for anything not likely to go up a mast. That said, routing aluminium works exceptionally well and templates for hardware fitting are very suitable. Not sure I want to control a router in a bosun's chair!
Lol. You wouldn't believe how often I use my thumb (it's an inch wide) and my handspan (10") for measuring. At my age, that also means I know that my handspan fits four to the meter, so the boat will be 21 spans long ;)
Great video not seen pouncing before great explanation of router diversity.

AS ALWAYS Very Cool to see How Creative you BOTH Are GOD BLESS YOU and Your Beautiful BABY and your AWESOME Homestead 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Troy, thank you for teaching us easy to understand transfer of drawings to ply for accurate plans. Blessings to you three.
❤ enjoying the build 👍
Thanks Troy enjoying your build series
Brilliant way of transferring patterns. 😁👍

Great to see you building a Boat. The farm thing, well, been there and done that.
Hi Troy, good to see you back in your boat building mode. Great to see the template techniques being used to enhance your build. All the best to you, Pascale and baby. From the UK.
I learned a new meaning of pouncing and picked up some others tricks of the trade. Thanks for sharing.
Nice work, should be a great boat when it's all done.
Have a great day

Right. You are asking for comments on the boatbuild. I have to disappoint you. No comments. Perfect job so far.
Great video documenting transferring points to a wooden template. The drawing outline, tools, technique, method. Using inexpensive tools to get accurate reproductions.
I agree with you that Ryobi battery tools are a great value . They hold up well
We decided to invest in Ryobi tools a few years ago as we needed to buy many and decided it would be a good choice because they are not super expensive if they do fail, however we have not had a single one go bad. Very happy with them so far also!
Always enjoyed nesting. The computer auto nest was usually pretty bad so getting a few extra components out was satisfying.

Excellent content as always. Well done
Cracking video Troy.
You can also glue the drawings you've made with the kraft paper directly onto the MDF and then cut the pattern and MDF as one....
No need to transfer any lines onto the MDF
No, because the frames are made of multiple parts that overlap. Where you have an overlap, you must duplicate details from both.
@@FreeRangeLiving but you could make multiple drawings onto the kraft paper...
I guess it depends if you like drawing or transferring 🙃
Surely also once you have cut out one template.... if you need multiple parts that overlap...
You could simply use the first template you've made to create multiples by tracing around d the template onto your ply...

Excellent tips.
awsome Troy thanks for the insight
Look great
Have you found John’s “deliberate” mistakes in the drawings ?
Aye m8! Hmm… maybe a router would be next? Maybe a cordless would be better onboard?

😵💫Why complicate things with metric when your print shows that 3/32 inch is 3 and15/16 inch on an 8 ft ply...🥵daah🧐
