- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ธ.ค. 2023
- Boat Builder Bob Emser demonstrates how to build a boat grate. Generally
grates are used on the sole of a yacht, the walnut grate in this case is designed as a aft hatch for the Haven 12 1/2. The detailed crosshatching of wood in a beautiful lattice pattern can be quite challenging. Follow along as Bob shows how he designed and constructed the aft hatch.
In addition the seat for the boat are secured by using a classic Herreshoff method.
“If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.”

That hatch turned out to be a piece of art and those latches WOW!. Seat hold downs are also a great idea, never would have thought about something like that. It seems Herreshoff was a man of great ideas.
It may have been said before but I appreciate the effort to include metric measurements also in the editing. You're building boats the size that I might be able to realistically build myself one day Bob, and in a precise fashion. Keep it up!
Thank you
Such a pleasure to watch someone use actual drafting skills vs cad or sketchup, well done sir.
Thanks
Beautiful work as always Bob!
Beautiful hatch and clever with the seat hold downs Thanks Bob
looks great Bob!
Wonderful episode! Nice to see the steps to make such a hatch! Thanks!
Thank you Bob for sharing this with us. great job looks real nice👍
lovely job, Bob and those bronze fiddles really set it off!
Great episode!!
Great work and a beautiful hatch!
Great work!
Beautiful!
Beautiful work as always.
Looks great Bob, I really like the dowels for securing the seats.
Excellent demo. Thank you.
Another beautiful addition to Skylark Bob. Great tips on making the lattice. I enjoyed the video and most of all Thanks for sharing!
That hatch is absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing how you made it. I love wood working and learned some cool things with this project. Also, that is really cool how you attached the seats.
Keep up the good work....
Thanks for the hatch building. I wondered how to make that pattern with my tools, and you showed me how. :)
Really beautiful work, Bob! It looks fantastic in the boat! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
And happy holidays!
Really enjoyed watching...cheers rr Normandy, Fra
You have a eye for detail, and a true hand. Way to pull it off fascinating
Glad to see you were using feather boards as well. I use them whenever I can.
Thanks very much
Nice project
Made it beautiful
LUV black walnut. Fav domestic wood
Using the dowels and half dowels was a novel solution for securing the seat. Thanks for sharing your discoveries.
Not so novel because it was invented in 1914. But still very ingenious!
Thanks Bob, Didn't see many "shortcuts" for that Grate work...but it is Beautiful. Glenn H.
Good Evening Bob, what a great solution to secure the seats! I appreciate your approach and use of templates to ensure accuracy and achieve professional results…thanks for sharing. By the way, I’d say you’ve about worn out your wax ring screw holder! Thanks again.
Very nice!
Thanks!
É simplesmente fantástico. O esmero com os detalhes só agrega valor. Parabéns!!
I would add two tiny bumps under the brass locks to keep them from turning down. Either a nice brass round head screw or a dowel end.
Such a beautiful addition.
That was smart they doing blanks rather than individual strips I think I probably would’ve made a mistake and done them individually
Good job, Bob
Compulsive viewing as always. An ingenious method of cutting slots for the grating. I use the milling attachment on my lathe when making gratings for model boats - I wonder if this would also work for a scale 1:1 boat?
After seeing many elaborate box joint fixtures for table saws, it was nice to see one made so simply. Thank you Bob for the beautiful work. Have a good evening and best wishes for a joyful Holiday season.
Well it's only simple because he has an expensive dado blade...
@@DrTheRich I guess that depends on what you call expensive, FB marketplace where I am has used/new in box for $10-50. The custom insert for the table saw, the saw itself and that fence are money.
@@brucelyle5136 you also need a table saw that fits a dado. It won't fit in my €1k tablesaw
@@DrTheRich. I was most interested to see that Bob is using the very same Vermont American brand of dado blade that I purchased in 1979. It was inexpensive then and I’m still using it today, 44 years later. Good tools don’t always have to be expensive.
NICE EPISODE! M. FROM SUNNY ITALY.
Hi,as they say,the work on a wooden boat never stops,but it seems that new ideas are also welcome.They look great and appropriate to the boat.Cheers Roly🇬🇧.
Somewhere between 17:15 and 18:00 that right side scoring blade seemed to turn itself around!
Indeed while showing how the blades stacked I had the top blade in the wrong rotation. All the blade must rotate in the proper direction. They were properly stacked on the saw.
Good notice. Thanks for watching!
I had a guniea pig cage with the door latch like you made and the screw eventually came loose and the tip of the latch fell down in the wind and the door opened... I ended up adding a screw in the door for the latch to sit on when closed. The guinea pigs had a garden lunch that day.
two little dowels set in the grate below the screw level would work well so if the latch falls it sits on the dowels and by being lower than the screw the latches will fall to stay closed ,, just a thought.
Okay a back story on your development of your craft up to this point would be helpful! Does that video exist already? Goodonyas!
Hi Scott,
My background as a sculptor can be see on my artist website www.bobemser.com
The first video on my channel also give some background.

Thanks for asking. May be time for a back story video!
Cheers,

Hey Bob, I think you meant "Revealed"? Love your stuff...
👍
Question: Why would a router bit not be as accurate as a dado blade?
Fabulous work as always. Seasons greetings to you, I hope 2024 brings all you wish for! Cheers from the UK.
Thank you. Same to you!
I think a rabbet on the frame would be useful if this were to be used in a deck just to have support for a load on the grate.
A rabbet would work for a deck hatch. A rabbet would also be needed in the deck if it were to be flush with the deck. That would mean there wouldn’t be a need to put a rabbet in the grate.
Thanks for watching.
Bob
Really nice hatch.
One question/concern. At the lake where I have my boat in fall we get a cetain bug that looks for „shelter“ we find them in sail covers, rolled up sails or even under seat cushins it they have been forgotten to take in. I think you will slip your boatbin an out. But wherever it has her place the open grid might invite bugs to get into the hatch. But on the other hand Illinois might be different than my neck of the woods.
Interesting. You must be from an area with a more moderate climate. Here in central Illinois the freezing temperatures control must critters. If bugs are an issue the addition of fine screen on the back side should detour them.
Thanks for watching!
Bob
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding I live in the Southwest of Germany (hot muggy summers and mild winters). The bugs come into closed spaces early to late fall when the temperatures drop. In cold winters they get killed in warm ones they survive. Those bugs are not an issue during the summer though.
I think a fine mesh at back would be my solution too, a dark color would be nearly invisible from the outside and the maritime look is not disturbed.
👍👍👌👌
Thank you for that piece of art. It will be really helpful if you give us the name of the glue you are using!
The glue is a Cyanoacrylate glue. CA for short also known as super glue. I used the gorilla brand super glue.
Thanks for watching!
Chıc.
Nice,if you have the tools,what if you have only a handrouter,and a saw??
Everything is possible, just will take longer.
Thanks for watching!
We do not have dado blades around here, so please bear with me. Could it be that the orientation of the last blade was wrong when you showed how they are setup?
Yes, in showing how the blades are stack I did inadvertently show one blade in the wrong orientation. They all need to rotate the same way, which is how I mounted them on the saw.
Thanks for watching.
Bob
Great observation. I was he mounted it correctly on the saw.
I think I would’ve run the rails and styles through and given them a half inch dado at a quarter inch depth, and then given the panel edges a dado as well to match
I think you’d be doing a lot more work that would be less accurate.
Thanks for watching.
Bob
When measuring the Dado's width, are you measuring from the tip of the blades or the flat of the blades themselves? Obviously I'm a beginner Dado Dude.
From the tips. What you're looking for is the width of the kerf.
Thanks for watching!
Bob, do you have floatation anywhere?
Yes.
I am looking for work to restore old wooden yachts, maybe you can recommend something, thank you.
Where are you located?
Europe Boltic states,Lithuania, but I free to travel.Tkanks for Message.
shouldn't that glue be resorcinol-formaldehyde?
Resorcinol glue is very toxic. It is mainly used in the production of marine plywood. The only place it should be used is when it’s going to be totally submerged.
It is also a deep red color that that interferes with the aesthetics of bright work.
Thanks for watching.!
But I don’t wanna sound like a naysayer. I think you do beautiful work.
That was fascinating ….i never knew how they. Made those ! Never thought about screwing it on the miter ! Thanks again.._great video…came out awesome …captain Nate would be proud 😊!
Every control system Requires! positive and negative feedback in order to operate. Everything I've see you do is wonderful.. and mainly positive feedback is warranted (without doubt!!!) But did I miss something? Your seats were already perfectly secure. With an addended bronze support. Why are you drilling holes in your seat planks? I get you want to adhere to aesthetically Herreshoff techniques but I'm just not sure it is warranted. But rest assured I will be eagerly watching each installment! because you are a STAR!... See.. negative and positive in the same response... perfectly damped
actually.. I get it now.. my bad
The devil is in the details! if you are going to make it...make it beautiful!
