Howdy Lucas- so good to see you again. You are very fortunate to get to be a part of the ship build. It’s amazing that it is older men involved in a project like this. Can’t wait to see the next video of the ship. Hope all is well with you and you’re doing well. God’s blessings to you and your family
Hi Paul! Thanks for your kind words. It has been very enjoyable to be involved with this build, such nice people. I see you are nearly finished with the cabin, it looked so smart, beautiful craftsmanship. God be with you and your kin Sir
The old men of the viking age would be absolutely brilliant at building these ships. It takes generations to perfect, the young ones did all the heavy work 🪓💪
Been a while! Glad to learn the term "tip hew" for a technique I use myself sometimes preparing woodturning blanks. This is sometimes called "noodling" because of the long chips.
@@LucasRichardStephens Hi Lucas, thanks for asking. We took a different approach to it and doing it slowly, reusing all the old wood possible and keeping the character. Downstairs is ready and also the bathroom upstairs. We sanded the Parkets in the living room and used a lot of linseed paint. We did a lot of work on the façade, scraping and repainting. And we moved in last Friday:) still a building site but nice energy. We wish you all the best.
I have a film almost ready to post. I am curious to hear from you, is watching the work being done in real time a good point in these films or a bit boring? I am debating with myself how much to edit down. I think I may put in the long form sequences....
Really nice to see how it's build. Never enough unfinished projects, so started building my own 1:2 version of Skuldelev Schiff 3. Definetly not with traditional methods and not 100% accurate with drawings, mostly improvised to suit with materials and tools I have.
I have heard that a thousand years ago it could take as little as 6 months. We will take closer to four years. We each work about 8-10 hours a week though. I am not sure the modern tools make as much difference as one might imagine. An other consideration is that we are following a set of drawings, and are making a copy of a ship. If we were free to use the boards as the tree size dictated we would have had far less waste wood, and it been faster to build.
@@LucasRichardStephens understandable and amazing still 4 years with that schedule is still a feat in and of itself, and as for plank size I’m sure the Viking’s had similar problems, thank you for answering my question I find this absolutely fascinating makes me want a longship of my own here in Texas
I'd love to see a video of all the boards made the accepted way the ancients supposedly did. Splitting massive oaks down to individual boards with just wooden wedges and hammers. Hundreds of them. I bet it would take years to a decade to make a single ship that way. I think the vikings had far more efficient methods to make the thousands of boards meeded to build whole fleets.
It took the Scandinavians about six months to build a ship like this. We are taking several years because we don't work every day and have fewer workers. We use a chainsaw mill to save on timber, but we still have to follow the grain of the wood so splitting is essential, as is the case in many modern crafts, such as wooden bow making.
I applaud you for keeping the tradition. However, even at this moment, the United States and China are moving forward into the future. Such powerful people will continue to plunder for the hegemony. Heck, I hope they come up with something new that will keep mine grounded in tradition.
@@LucasRichardStephens oh i dont and its great to se that this boats being built and that you post videos on you tube. i have built several models of nordlandsboats scratch built so it is wery interessant to se. Thanks for your reply stay safe
@normaasennord4513 Klåstadskipet which this boat is based on, was found with a large section of the hull intact. It being a shipwreck, not a burial mound. This fact makes this ship and Sagafamann, the drawings of which we are using, very close replicas of the original, using exact measurements directly from the find. The rigging will be more based on the modern tradition of vikingskip building. The sails' weave and materials is based on the fragment found on the gogstad find.

Great video and a big thumb up to all the people who is involved building the Viking ship.
Many thanks!

Good to hear from you Awldune! Yes I have been almost too busy. All the best!
Wonderful .
Lucas it is so great to see another project and what a community:) one is jealous:) all the best from Walsh’s
Hows your house getting on Zuzana? All the best, Lucas

So good to see a video from you again, I’ve missed them. Wonderful as always!
Thanks very much Josh!, All the best
Great work!:D
thanks for watching Isfrid♥
Amazing work in a modern world.
Thanks very much for watching Scott
I need more parts of this lol I'll be waiting for part 5!!

@@LucasRichardStephens I quite enjoy the long process actually, I like to see how everything is done
Perhaps there needs to be many chefs to make a good meal ... over here at Øyeren we only had some apprentices when we dug our primitive log boat.
Clearly the women make all the difference in this instance too

Thanks for watching! Are you in Finland?
Flott video!
Takker!
How long does it take to build one of these I know it’s a considerable amount of time even including the modern equipment

Fear not
Why do so many call this builds copies. They are not copies they are interpretations of the find
It is just a convenient term of reference. Don't take it too hard.

@@LucasRichardStephens Great thats a wery Nice ship is there plans available
@@normaasennord4513 check out the website and get in touch with the organisers, they may have.
Great video from an important crew member, with loads of relevant experience 🪓💪
Glad you enjoyed it! All the best Ragnar
