This is the Jorge Jones version of how to put wheels on a table saw. It's low budget and effective.

This is a scratch build I'm working on from offsets from "How to build a pt boat". The project is on going and can be viewed in my play list. I am currently applying the second layer of planking.
Model PT stringer construction

I am coining this a box joint. It may have been done before, if so let me know. It is just a butt joint wrapped Its a real easy and quick way to join stringers for length.

I extend the stringers well beyond the aft perpendicular. I like to have lots of wood to work with when I make the angle.

Whatever became of your build?
Wow!! Wat a supertop build project !! Thanks for sharing all the techniques!
I keep checking for new videos, cant wait to see it progressing. Keep up the good work!!
Outstanding work, I'm inspired to start planning my pt project, but a much smaller version, thanks for your videos cheers mate 👍
What is you target weight for this boat, pleas?
Have you gotten any further? Superb work.
So what happened....
The last we heard about this boat was 4 years ago. Was it ever finished?
The Elco 80' PT boat hulls have always been my favorite hull shape. You did an amazing job on this one! That takes a lot of skill and patience. I'd love to build one 36" or 48" some time.
Another "looks promising" project seems to have putterred out after making it to only pt4.
What ever happened with this project? This was 4 years ago.
I love the authenticity of construction and would love to try one at perhaps half this size.
What will be the final skin paint finish?
Beauty eh..?!
I was just wondering did you ever finish the PT Boat.?
When will we see the rest of the build
Such a cool boat
I generally like big complicated builds, but this intimates the hell out of me!
No.
Don’t die.
An amazing build! It's big enough to sit in it!
Have you made any headway on completing the project? Amazing work!
Hello Jorge, did you ever finish this build? I have an 80" wooden Elco 103, would like to know what you used for propulsion in your boat. Thanks and hope you are doing well, Kevin
heres a pat on the back,,,,, great job, looks great. best of luck. thanks for posting
No updates in 2 years. Did this guy die? I’ve watched the series and was hoping to see more on this boat build
I have no idea what happened to this project, but I sure hope that we will see more of it someday, but I have my doubts, 2 years is a long time.......
Whatever happen to it
How's the project going these days? Excellent work, BTW.
Do you sell down scale plans OF THIS PT BOAT Thank you Mike
Надеюсь, что продолжение этой фантастической работы будет. Прекрасно!
where can i get a set of these drawing plans?am willing to pay for it
The 80ft Elco had such beautiful lines! It was just a gorgeous boat!
I am trying to find the plans or plans where 1 inch = 1 foot. can you direct me? Thank you and I appreciate your efforts in putting up the videos. Keep up the good work.
Where is part 3?
Did you ever complete the project? Beautiful craftsmanship
Hi jorge, are you planning to post any more videos ?
A 10' model? Make a seat in it so you can at least drive in it? Power it with a Rotax 912?
Beautiful work in the PT Boat.
Nice job!
Hi! Do You have Facebook?
Perfect job!
Wonderful!!!
Beautiful work, do you have plans for sale?
update?
update?
Using that small block of wood to keep the nail sticking out is simple and effective. I wouldn't have thought of that!
Ten feet long, wow! I've built boats that are only half that size, and I thought they were big...
That looks gorgeous - almost a shame to paint it later on!
Good old fashioned DIY, I love it.
I just discovered this channel - what can I say? Wow! You've got another subscriber Jorge!
GREAT JOB JORGE!!!!! I look forward to your next video.
