For your "shoeshine sander" if you get a couple pieces of 3/4 wood dowel and saw each down the middle, they will make nifty handles for your palms once you clamp them onto the dowels with a couple of screws.
Well done... I built a pair of oars and (forgive me) hated the idea of gluing on a set of ply paddle ends thinking it would be a little "Mickey Mouse" and not look as good as a flat laminate extension of the oar shaft. This build has proven me wrong!! I love the way these turned out. I like you video style as well with an efficient and mildly entertaining narrative. The accent isn't a problem, and actually adds I think to your overall appeal. Good job all the way!!
Thank you! Joost has rowed miles and miles on a set of oars like this, and his feedback is really positive. As for may accent...well you just don't know how many times I sometimes have to repeat a sentence before it comes out right 😁
They are somewhere between the long sea blades like Michalak/Culler's and the 9ft oars (wide blades) on the other set of plans in the GIS FB group. tbh I hope i dont' have to use them often...nothing beats sailing!😉
The Video Rambler i hear ya, and I can’t imagine that flat bottom skiff would be particularly fun to row more than a little in any case unless the water was very calm.
Thanks Steve! The popping beer is a phenomenon that happens once you have built a GIS and have enough fun with it before coming back in the workshop again. It's quite rewarding! 😁
Thats a nice set of oars. I like it better with your accent lol. Hey man easy on the oars
🤣😂
Nice work! Glad my drawings were helpful!
Hey Justin!
Yes indeed! Good job and thanks for the effort! 😉

Glad you like them!
More great work and explaining, enjoyable video once again!
Thanks dude! 😉
Beautifully done!
Thank you Bruce!
Row Row Row your boat! xD
You need to show us those oars working in an upcoming video!
Will have to wait a while for calmer days...There's a lot of wind coming our way atm!
A good video making a great pair of oars. Easy to follow and clear method👍
Thanks Paul!!
The plans and instructions made available by Joost on Goat Island Skiff FB group helped me a lot!

@@TheBoatRambler its all good ... I subscribed to see what else you're up to...
Thank you! 😉
Those big scoops should push the skiff along great.

Good job!
Thank you Greg!
Como siempre excelente
Thank you!
Just need to get some oarlocks now! 😁
Great video. Just one question...how can I get some of that magical beer that pops in your hand when you are thirsty?
Thanks Steve!

Ficaram com boa pinta :)
ou com muito boa pinta...
Obrigado!
Agora só falta colocar o cabedal e instalar as forquetas!😉
Nice looking oars. Perhaps I missed it, what wood are you using?
Hi Glenn !
I used white spruce to make them! 😉
