Building ORCA - Episode 8: Connecting the forefoot to the stem - deep drilling
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ม.ค. 2023
- Moving forward on ORCA we've almost completed assembling our center-line and this week we're making the final connection between the forefoot and the stem. This joint will be made in a new and improved way that will work to hold the pieces together while also not allowing for any twist. We are ultimately going to be using all bronze fastenings in ORCA because they hold up best and don't disturb the wood around them the way stainless and galvanized fastenings can but we are going to keep the keel mobile for the rabbiting process before then lifting it into place to start framing and planking.

You sound just like the internal arguments I have with myself whenever I'm building something. "No need to rush, it's better to sneak up on the line"
The scraper made it next level. Thanks for the 40 years of insight
Precision with a chainsaw & scrapper. Beyond Brilliant - Just incredible. Lou is a National Treasure that should be Knighted into the USA Hall of Fame. So inspiring.
What’s a scrapper?
OK. Got it. A scraper!
I thought the exact same thing, a national treasure. :D Pieces of his vast knowledge on this subject are able to be shared, that just blows my mind.
True,what Lou does not know,is not worth knowing,his brain contains so much valuable information,he should write manuals.
Tebrikler..
Lou your tool control is on another level. I am not impressed easily having more than 50 years experience working with hand and power woodworking tools and I am learning things from you with every video, I am greatly impressed with your skillset. Loving every minute of it.
Thanks David!
I feel honored that I get to watch this masterpiece get created. So inspiring.
Thanks Harvey, we're excited to do it
Good afternoon Lou, I have been a fan of your clips for some years. I love watching your skill in building works of art. Because I am retired and very busy I have decided to build a 1'/1foot model of ORCA. I am using 4mm commercial ply laminated together for forming the centerline. will post a picture when I am a bit further. I wait for your next episode.
Ive drilled 4 inch holes (10.16 cm for your metric types) and had them wander, Lou uses a 24" (61 cm) drill and its perfect. A master boat builder and tool user!
This reminds me of what my old boss used to say at the boatyard: "do the best you can and it'll be just as good as it oughta' be".
Lou. It’s taken 3 weeks to watch 2 videos. I know your a busy guy. But at this rate you won’t be eyeing the sheers for another 11 years. The only reason I say this is your the only guy worth watching. But I’ll be dead way before you lay a deck plank. And I was hopeing to see it launched. N b d. Your the man
We're still drawing some parts of the boats, it'll pick up quickly here, stay tuned!
Tighter than a Bull's a** in fly season Lou!
I find it interesting watching woodworking channels that have nothing at all good to say about Ryobi tools, and then we get to watch a REAL craftsman work with them and turn out a joint that most of them couldn't even dream of making. Well done my friend!
I do make some adjustments ;) but then they do serious work for me!
Smashing joint and well executed, true craftsman love watching your channel Lou.
I think the proper description of hand sawing the first part of that joint. Is you are approaching perfection.
The only guy on the internet whom we would watch make one single joint in one whole episode.
Seeing how they scrape machine tools to get them fitted to 0.0001" or better, that is a great way to make things as perfect as possible.
Another use for my scraper, besides teak and varnish 😁👍, pretty work
Wow thanks Lou from Slam Bang fishing lodge west coast of Vancouver island Kyuquot sound we specialize in good times if you have time
Thank you for your videos!
I am full of admiration for your skills. Of course, I watch a lot of videos from different parts of the world, but what you show on your channel is the most endearing to me. Especially because of the flat-bottomed boats. Thanks to you, I am getting closer to building a traditional wooden boat, used on the Vistula River - this is the largest river in Poland.
If only I could visit your studio!
Regards!
Thank you we love the flat bottom skiff too, it's all we had when we were kids. We're just finishing up our set of plans for the flat-bottom fishing skiff they'll be available shortly.
Very cool. Nice alignment of the stem. Can not wait to see her sitting upright. Carry on.
Your voice and passion for wood boats is awesome
Thank you for noticing Kris, yes I do!
A principle I often forget, designing things to enforce their own squareness. you learn something new every day. Also, those electric chainsaws sure are nice. no 2-stroke smoke to deal with.
Also very lightweight
Rapidly becoming my favourite boat building channel - great work
With all the tools and 'latest must-have woodworking gadgets' in the world, your hands and skill, and the odd 'simple tool', are all that's needed to create things (and joints) of beauty. The epitome of craftsmanship. Thanks for this video!!
Thanks Brett!
I do so much with a scraper now. The four-sided job from the big box store works great, easy to put a new edge on it, all the reasons Lou’s taught, all the way back from the flat-bottomed skiff!
Hi Mark, thanks excellent, such a great tool! Love hearing from you, will have more info on that subject soon!
Same here, it's really a great tool from aggressive to very subtle
That joint is incredible, I will have to lock that one away in my mind for use one day. Very nice work with that drill.
"I'm old, I don't want it down on the floor." Boy can I relate to that feeling Lou. I have several auger bits with damaged lead screws and I was wondering what to do with them. This video gave me the idea to make barefoot bits out of them. Thank you for such great videos sir.
Thanks Matt I liked that line too, and I wasn't kidding!
Nice work Mon!
Amazing that hole was spot on.
It’s a pleasure to watch a craftsman create something like that. Beautiful wood and incredible workmanship, using a chainsaw and a paint scraper.
Louis is a National Treasure
I heard it more than once that a chain has better control than a reciprocating saw.....I'm still to "chicken to try it " awesome job so far.
In fact, Steven Denette from AcornToArabella discussed the risks involved with chainsaws in his lastest video. You might want to look at that video to have a better grasp of the hazards, how they occur and how to mitigate the risks.
That joint is badass
It is so satisfying and also impressive to watch you work, Lou. What a craftsman!
My favourite shipwright - could watch you all night.
Watching from the U K brilliant work.
Awesome! Thank you!
Beautiful work lovely to watch. Thank you
Thank you! Cheers!
I love the auger bit modification, that is something I need, 20 years over due
15:16 - 15:34 - headphone warning
Great work as always, Lou!
A lot of people don’t know just how hard it is to do those joins with these tools. Well done.
Lou, I never want your videos to end. So much practical genius. But alas like a great wine, the bottle will always be empty at the end. Thank you
But there's always another one!
U deserve a noble prize for that drill job....
as father Sarducci would say, "thats'a, some'a tight'a joint!". :)
Fantastic, thanks Lou!
I've learned more about joinery watching this keel build than in my previous 50 years lol
Thanks Brian, there's always something to learn, never stop learning
This is a great learning moment as to putting a strong joint together and then drill accurately and bolt the joint. 1 of 2 I'm guessing. And then there's more to come !!! Thanks.
National treasure indeed!!! Building one of the most iconic boats of my generation!!! Watching that deep concentration face says it all!!! Love ❤️ your channel, Lou! Keep on, keeping on, my brother!!!!
Wow thanks martin, we couldn't be more excited, ORCA is gonna kick ass
Amazing the long bit didn’t drift or break or whatever- must be all in the way you prepared the cutting end - would be very interested to see some close-ups of that process
Straight as an arrow
Wow Lou! That was an impressive joint!
This is one of the coolest things on the internet
I guess you could say you hit the bulls eye with this one. You have a very nice skillset honed to perfection.
What a Masterful Teacher!
Impressive! Just one word needed to describe this video.
This is such an exciting build and I look forward to every video you post.
Your woodworking skills are second to no one !Im your age so the new audio is a god send.
Thanks Donald and Thank you Sennheisser!
Sir when you are Good your Good. Thanks for the Video. 👍🏻
Great episode Halsey!
Thanks Deno!
You are an amazing builder and problem solver. Thank you for sharing, I learn a lot from you!
Skill and comprehension! You got it friend.
Impressive.
Man. At this rate the orca is going to take well and I mean we’ll over 15 years to build. I’m sure you don’t read any of these. But I need my scarf and laminate fix ealswhere
Looking great, Lou!
Nice work, Lou. You never cease to amaze me.
Wow, thanks!
As always, a great video, Lou!
I can't believe how fast 20 minutes goes when you are creating your magic
Thanks we like to keep it moving!
Brilliant job Lou..
As a log home builder I use a chainsaw for the majority of the work.
One thing that we allways do is score our lines with a olfa razor knife...1/8" deep. As you pass by the line with the chain , we'll try it, the results are as perfect as the score.
Love wooden boat building and watching you do it.
A joy to watch and learn
That! Was outstanding!
incredible Lou! just fantastic.
awesome work
Absolutely gorgeous work
Absolutely fabulous to watch. A real craftsman.
That is a very satisfying joint.
you can only enjoy that, greetings from Holland
I love this build !
Cheers from Southern California!
Fantastic job!!
perfect fitted of the forefoot and stem, joint. Lou, nice job.
Nice job on that, Lou.
This is a huge job for boat!!! Go on. Good luck!!
That eraser shield idea was great! I certainly enjoyed watching your video. Best wishes.
Thanks Tim, if you sand it first and scuff it up it will hold more lead, very useful trick!
Amazing as usual
Looks good, very gratifying!
Excellent video!
Very well done Lou, that is a difficult task for sure, through oak across grain for 24”.
Well done!
You filed the chainsaw for rip cutting as in chainsaw milling - very Clever! - Nice work wth the saw!
It's a thing of beauty. 👍
Nice fit!!!
Great video 👍
Great video.
Love it looks good
awsome drilling!......damn!
Sennheiser the choice of Professionals. I've used them for twenty years, good and reliable. Cheers
You ain't kidding!
@Tips from a Shipwright No, I'm not, sennheiser is quality. There is no compromise for good audio in a recording. Cheers
wow..fantastic...thank you kindly...
Good stuff !
Thanks for sharing
Another fantastic video?
Impressive!
My Hero
Great ! Would love to learn more about that drill bit
