Building ORCA - Episode 10: Installing the Stern Post
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 มี.ค. 2023
- It's time for us to install the stern post for ORCA! This is an important piece as it will have the propeller shaft going through it and it connects the keel to the horn timber above it, which runs all the way back to the transom of the boat.
In this episode we're going to show you a little trick to help us mortise our timber into the keel with a chainsaw. Using two wooden guides and some socket wrenches bolted onto the chainsaw to control the depth, we can chew out the material in a fraction of the time it would take us with a hammer and chisel.

Leaving aside Lou’s unmatched shipwrighting skills for just a moment, can we just appreciate what a naturally gifted and articulate communicator he is - he draws you right into the workshop with him - there are simply no videos I look forward to dropping more than these, period.
he’s so excited about EVERYTHING he does - it’s infectious ❤️
Agreed.

Is Lou dead?
he is very good, but so it is his videographer. A lot of the quality of these videos has to do with editing and getting very good footage
I feel that listening to Lou give away this wealth of knowledge is a gift. I am very thankful. Your wisdom as a ship Wright is endless.
I am so glad Lou’s skills are being captured on video. The man is a national treasure!
Louis, thank you for sharing your love affair. Every episode is a ballet of woodwork and video production. Everything is where it should be when it should be. The use on natural light, the camera placement, the editing rhythm are all exemplary. And did I mention the awesome use of music; Louis' voice and delivery are a melody unto itself. Thank you.
Louis and Leo are the 2 best channels on TH-cam. Nothing on TV compares to their content.
There isn't a medullary ray in Rhode Island that's been overlooked by Lou.
This made me laugh so hard my coffeemilk came out my nose.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can you actually have a sentence without the words “medullary” or “ray”?
😂😂😂
Lou if they do a remake of "Jaws" you should be in it! To take the time to do what your doing is just incredible! 🦈
My Pop would have used his big "Slick" on the inside of that tenon cut - the steel was about 3 inches wide and 12 inches long attached to a 2 foot handle. It would lay on the face of that tenon and roll a curl like cutting Shirley Temple's hair. Flat and true, exactly what you're looking for when fitting big timbers. It was the last tool he held in his hand when he collapsed in his shop, like Arthur dropping Excalibur. He passed a few hours later, but the Slick is still doing its job in my brother's shop.
This is skill and experience over fancy tools. Impressive Lou, impressive.
Watching and listening to you is such a rewarding experience, Lou. Your craftsmanship and your ability to bring across your skills and wisdom make these videos works of global value. I could sit and watch an hour-long video of yours, something not many others can get me to do!
This is gunna be one hell of a boat.. That timber looks good enough to eat.. Thnx Lou..
Drilling chainsaw bars is not difficult. The best metod is to sandwich the bar between two pieces of ½” mild steel and drill it all together with lots of oil and a good sharp HSS drill. The real trick is to keep the air away from the procedure so that it does not cool either the drill or bar as the drill exits the hole. I have done this many times with and without a pilot hole. If you drill a pilot hole then do not drill all the way through the mild steel on the bottom and fill the pilot hole with cutting oil. Solid bars drill a little easier than laminated bars for some reason - don’t ask me why! I have drilled many Canon and Stihl bars for my mills. I love the set up you have designed and fabricated for mortice work. I am going to try this! As a Nova Scotian I am going to say it is a great project.
Building that jig for the chainsaw bar was amazing. I love stuff like that. Can't wait to see the next video.
I love how he uses tools. Its amazing to me what he does with a chainsaw, chisel, and a handsaw. Others out there are using expensive specialty tools, with laser levels, and nuclear powered screwdrivers, this man makes a few lines and goes at it and it comes out amazing!
Nice bit of creativity in the design of the homemade Morticsng Tool.
The orca was always my favorite boat😊
I always look forward to these videos! Excited to see Orca take shape!
I never cease to be amazed with your ingenuity, Lou. That bit with the chain saw is golden
I love watching your work Lou. It’s mostly traditional, the way it always been done, and l love your explanations. You don’t do anything for no reason. Well done.
I've just started building my first boat - a wooden 40' with larch strip planking on laminated iroko framing and keel.
TFAS has been such an inspiration to me, and it's great to be building it along with Louis! Can't wait to see how both boats turn out.
Lets see who gets done first!
@@oldwillie313 I better get back to work!
I hope you plan to Vlog your progress.
@@ErgonBill I shall - documenting as I go. When I have enough footage for a decent amount of content I'll start posting. Traditional wood boat building seems to be a dying art, getting large timers for things like the backbone/stem/stern is becoming harder and harder. I'm hoping laminating is a possible future - epoxy is a wonderful thing!
@@modernwoodboatbuilding True that. So labor intensive and the required timber and modern fitments are incredibly expensive these days. Don't like to say it, but it's far cheaper to buy a completed boat and do the necessary upgrades. But that's no fun.
.y late Grandfather was a master carpenter. I'm a novice starting my second boat soon. Just really appreciate Lou doing these videos.
When I see a fellow using Ryobi tools on a proper piece of work. And when I see a man using a chainsaw in any form of carpentry. It's something to see, because he's using tools just like me. Now your product is superior, oh yes! But that only confirms there is something here for me to learn. And I think all goals are accomplished. Thumbs up ,. Nice job Mr.
Lou is the Master of Make Do. No special tool, make one.
Ingenious way of using a chain saw for cutting a mortise.
Orca is going to be one fine looking boat when you have finished building her. You method for cutting that mortise is just plan stunning. Simply yet scary as hell for a "normal" person to make. You made it look like a piece of cake.
Lou greetings from Puerto Rico, a Master Jedi, thanks for sharing all that knowledge, God Bless You.
Two by four works. Thanks. Searched all over for my 6mm wrench or socket. Turns out didn’t need it. Some where in the past oil changes, someone removed the flap. Anyhow, thanks for the video and follow up comment. Helped get me back in the game of taking care of my cars after a long illness. Thanks again
Love your work Louis! Awesome.
In Japan they have artisans and craftsmen who are designated as National Treasures. Lou would be one here. People like this should have faithful apprentices assigned to them. Someone who will faithfully carry the knowledge forward.
What a craftsmen i could listen to you all day my friend all the best from a brick layer in the uk
I love watching Lou's videos!
Thank you Lou for the video to start my week with. Seeing the quality of material and the careful fitting up of the backbone it popped into my mind that to hurt this Orca they're going to have to get a bigger shark. Take care and have a great week.
Good seeing some progress. It takes as long as it takes. Better to get it right.
FINE CHAINSAW ART Mr.Saw ! We have several bear cubs and full sized bears carved on a talll pole or several poles with chainsaw here in hometown Sooke in Canada!
Thanks for the knowledge. I don’t plan on building a boat but some of the techniques you use are of immeasurable value to certain woodworkers. As you point out, you can make excellent joinery with a little imagination and everyday common tools.
By the way, I noticed the nib on the panel saw you were using. Good tools last a life time and more.
Luv listening to Lou. Lou you should do a video on all your modified tools and machines. Also with all your jigs and quizmos. Cheers
Thanks again from Slam Bang fishing just getting my timbers sawn up for last part of 6000 square foot rebuild of our floating flotilla we specialize in good times if you have time
Ya took on quite a challenge with this one Louie. Lookin great so far as i expect it will when finished.
How awesome! Great job, Lou! I hope Norm watches you, too 👍 I also wish a handrail craftsman would make a channel like yours.
Don't have a tool, make one, classic case of Adapt, Improvise Overcome,😁👍to watch Lou work is to understand why wood boats have a soul
4:12 great idea to cut a mortise
Impressive work Lou, I'm really excited for the next episode 🙂
Looking good Lou.
Thanks, Louis...
simply amazing!
Absolutely fascinating... I think I missed my calling. Perhaps in my next life. Subbed, can't wait to watch the entire series. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 👍 🍻
I consider Lou to be the best wooden boat builder I have ever seen . However, I did some calculations based on his start of the Orca build and came to this conclusion: this series will take five years or longer to complete. I don't know if I will live that long? Do I have any like minded fans of Lou out there that are of the same opinion ?
If you go to his website, his actual work time, is way faster than his TH-cam time. We'll see what happens.
@@chuckrobinson599 Dear Chuck, thank you for that information. Joe I'm looking forward to his next video.
I learn so much with every video!
Haha! Fun with the hand saw!
I didn't like seeing your hand so close to that band saw early on, but I also wondered what you do with the off-fall?
I imagine there's some left over lumber that could be put to use on something else.
I'm very impressed with the chain saw jig.
That's a gorgeous hunk of oak, too.
Hey! It's Alex from fellowship! Still haven't heard from anyone. Good to see ya and my wife and I will be coming to fellowship next weekend! Hope to see ya then!
Great work, guys !
What can I say! Incredible. I'll say that.
Great work Lou
Great stuff, I love a bit of heavy oak carpentry.
love it
Nice work with a chain saw!
it's a good thing that they didn't get a bigger boat after all !!!!!!
thank you Lou
Thanks for sharing.
Been waiting for the rest of this series. Is our shipwright buddy ok? Haven't seen any videos lately
I'm looking forward to doing some "Monster" fishing.
Man made his own mortiser, well, sort of. But it works!
At this rate of progress I’m thinking we reconvene in 5 years time if we’re all still alive
Hi
Intention to inform:
You should think about using japanese pullsaws for your work. Makes the whole process waaaaaay easier.
We do carpenter work and changed almost all our tools to japanese woodwork tools.
They are more advanced for the job they have to do. Because the are very old in design. A pull plane i.exmpl. is marvelous to use! Way better then a push plane, in our humble expjriance.
A plunch saw with a rail would easyup cutting a lot to, would bring down handworking time too. When you want that.
Have fun thy for your insights.
Watching in seattle
Love that chainsaw jig.. Simple... Clever... I don't understand what 12 degree angle on the blade means..
He is referring to sharpening the teeth on the chainsaw. Most saw chains are sharpened at a 30 degree angle ( zero being exactly perpendicular to the bar) for normal crosscut bucking of logs. For ripping ( cutting with the grain) it is better to sharpen closer to zero. Many commercially available ripping chains are sharpened at 5 or 10 degrees. This produces a less aggressive cut that also wanders side to side less. He sharpened his at about 12 degrees.
@@boooshes thank you. I appreciate it.
LOU! Where are you?????????
I LOVE my Ryobi battery chainsaw. But I have a lot of batteries for it and the rest of my Ryobi tools.
Lou there is a kid building a sailboat, his youtube handle is Jack Wood. He could sure use a tip or 2. He is trying...
check out the Skilsaw SAWSQUATCH for the cuts you did around the 10:34 mark. every review ive read and seen about it would make the end of that beam faster and easier. just a suggestion for a tool to use on these big beams
WHERE'S LOUI? Been too long!
Yeah, I'm getting a little worried..
Last post on facebook was september with a haircut and looking dapper. Probably just enjoying a well earned break or a new lease on life.
Been thinking about the chainsaw mortise tool you built. I love chainsaws and have milled with them for years. Why not a mortise chisel in a drill press?
Beautiful work so far, very entertaining. Are you building this boat for somebody or yourself? I'm a jaws fan and an orca fan. I understand Spielberg was genuinely upset when one of the movie boats was removed from the jaws ride at universal.
👍
Has this guy built the Orca yet ? I Haven't seen anything yet ?
Are those two spark plug sockets on the chain saw as guides?
👍👍🙂
Hey… how is Evelyn? Haven’t seen her progressing for a while…
A brake on you circular saw?
✌🇦🇺
Help your amateur viewers: why does the keel stick out past the stern post?
I build my boats from Home Depot lumber.
you don`t hear any more about this project.
U.S. troops out of Syria
After seeing that saw I think you need to retire and spend more time with the rest of your fingers.
Nice work, but you need to pick up the pace. Not enough progress for two weeks work.
cant rush perfection
excellent vid thanks
Lou. It seems like your not putting much effort into your videos anymore. A month goes by and you make three cuts. And then wait another month or so and a two min video comes out where you sharpen a saw blade. You need to go on vacation and take some well deserved time for you and your bride.
