Beer o'Clock At The Boatshed Session 1

- In this first session of a new series, boatbuilder Ian Smith invites you to join him and a few other shipwrights in the boat he's building (a 24' Ranger class gaff sloop), for a beer and a yarn. With close to 200 years of boatbuilding experience between them, the boys discuss figured timbers, steam-bending, and how they fit skin fittings and seacocks. You'll be invited to more of these sessions at different boatsheds, where you'll see some great wooden boat projects from around Sydney and the rest of Australia, and hear some great yarns about incidents, accidents, and meet some great characters from around the waterfront, all on Smithy's Boatshed channel.
Absolutely excellent Ian!! Many thanks for initiating this 👍🏻
That was fun, great discussion.
Great idea executed very well! I'll be looking forward to the next one.
Great to see this community of shipwrights!
shame you cant get that Ferres fella to give everyone else a chance to speak ! - Thanks for sharing Ian, great insight to how folks with 'actual' knowledge do their work.
I raise a beer to you lot.
Good to see some apprentices!
As always Ian,
Beautiful work.
Fantastic Ian well done can’t wait for your next one.
Ozzies drinking beer, what next?
I'm having a wee Sambuca.
I guess the risk mating a taper thread with a parallel is either splitting one side of the joint from over tightening and or accepting just a ring of full thread contact. The ring contact may require additional tightening over time. Both can give you leak paths which are not obviously detected immediately. Joint threads should always be compatible e.g. taper with taper.
What a great Brains trust! Well done. If you are talking skin fittings what about the bonding issue?
Gee Gaz, they'll have you doing cooking shows next !
I learnt the bag steaming method from Louis Shauzede (YT: Tips From a Shipwright). I wouldn't steam any other way.
A wealth of knowledge in that boat im currently referbing a Holmes motor cruiser 46 sister ribs done sofar
Good luck, Holmes built a lot of amazing boats.
Ive used Tru design in my timber boat and its great knowing i wont have an issue with dissimilar metals! Especially since insurance company’s wont insure a claim when electrolysis is involved! Make sure when buying tru design you get the long tails, as the short tails are no good for timber boats!
I should also add that they are survey compliant (but cant be used in an engine room for survey in case of a fire)
Thanks, good to know.
So apprentices only get cans. They aren’t ready for bottles yet.
Beer oclock in the boat shed i work wood be good but as always to much to be done
