    What you are doing is a unique experience and the interaction of both as a young couple in addition to your simplicity and beautiful humility, is enough reason to follow this channel. Try to spend as little as possible on the project because the value it has is not in the money. Just focus in make the boat safe. For my part I would love to be able to help you but at this moment in my life I can only follow and encourage you. Blessings

    I just started binge watching your boat videos from the beginning. It is now a year later and I am sure you have found the sailing community will show up to help each other because one day they might need help. I look forward to seeing her in the water sailing around Brasil and other ventures. I cannot believe how nice the interior was and that creatures were not living inside of her.

    Duca and Roberta, you got my week off to a wonderful start, as usual. It brings me such joy to watch as an incredible couple works together as a team, along with their "supporting cast", to transform their dream into a reality.
    Four suggestions:
    1) Zip-lock bags, a sharpie and a camera three of the best tools when disassembling something that must be reassembled. Mark a zip-lock bag with a sharpie as to the contents and location, and place every fastener, as well as odds and ends, in the bag. Then place the bag where it can easily be found when it's time to put everything back together.
    2) Again with the sharpie, mark every panel, piece of trim, etc. in a way that makes sense when putting everything back together.
    3) Keep damaged pieces to use as templates. It makes marking and cutting replacements so much easier, not to mention precise.
    4) Add two flat pry bars (amzn.to/31y1pBX) and a "cats paw" (amzn.to/31z7kXu) to your tool set. You probably have these at the tiny house, but it looks like you really need them now!
    By the way, at 18:12, as you expand your nautical terminology, a wall is a bulkhead. So, in one sentence, you score bulkhead, saloon and head! :)
    Congratulations on the addition of so many Patreon members. My only regret is that I don't live closer. Otherwise I'd be there to help you in a heartbeat. Your subscriber count is closing in on 100K, so many another milestone within the next week. Until then, be well and do good work.

    Actually, I am a year behind your current location. Episode 017 is where my viewing has taken me. But your email notification of this, episode 093, caught my curiosity and I couldn't help but watch what kind of horrors you are experiencing on the boat. "Good grief", as my Mother would say. How you maintain your joyful outlook is quite amazing as many people would walk away from such problems. You are two special people that prove that a good attitude and hard work can accomplish most anything. You are an inspiration !

I love your content, your drive to learn and enjoy life at it’s fullest. Look forward to seeing the container house and boat finished. But... what I enjoy most is your loving partnership. What you’ve faced building the house would test the most dedicated couples while you two just keep marching forward to your common goal. I’m sure there has been challenges but you both face them together. This series is much more than building a tiny house or refitting a sailboat. I look look forward every week to what happens next.

    For later reference, what you needed to stop the heat when welding was a fiberglass welding blanket. They isolate heat extremely well, you can have glowing red metal on one side and hold your hand on the other. They can be a bit expensive, but they also sell it much cheaper as fire blanket (for extinguishing kettle fires etc).

    Hi, you can hold a copper plate behind the weld, that will protect the area from to much heat, and you can remove it easy after the weld is done.

      "Back in the day", we would open up a bottle at the campfire and throw the cap into the fire so the bottle would need to be finished before the end of the night. Seldom ended well, best case we awoke in the early morning to a beautiful sunrise!

    Hey Duca, those rust spots on the port side that you were unsure how they got there are from rigging or something heavy denting the steel and removing the paint in a small spot. Over time the rust will grow into that, it looks like there was a small dent there.

    • @OddLifeCrafting
      @OddLifeCrafting  5 років тому

      We haven't think about it, that could be for sure.

    Hot air gun or an electric iron will heat the glue and you can lever it off.

    • @OddLifeCrafting
      @OddLifeCrafting  5 років тому +1

      the glue is composed by epoxy... it's a really strong glue. I'm pretty sure the heat wouldn't work in this case

    I see you used rod welding. Tig welding will produce less heat to the boat.

    • @OddLifeCrafting
      @OddLifeCrafting  5 років тому +2

      But the process of welding with tig is too slow and it would ended up heating more

    • @arnekvinge6073
      @arnekvinge6073 5 років тому

      No. But å cold weld prosedyre can help. I see å lot of smoke so I hope they grind off about 2 cm of galva before welding. More control on tig weld on clean steel. But easy that the covergass blows away and than ruin the weld working outside.

    • @arnekvinge6073
      @arnekvinge6073 5 років тому

      So outside welding in not very clean surface is better with rods i think. (Steelfitter first profession and not welder but have welder å lot)

    You just did not want to show how you used your clever engineering skill to convert the bilge pump into a
    stomach pump to remove that bad booze from your stomachs.

  • @travismitchell2792
    @travismitchell2792 5 років тому +1

    Nice work! Not sure if it was done in the survey, but you should look at getting some ultra sound spot checks on the hull, especially around the keel and lower sections before you paint. Its not too expensive, but could identify and serious hidden corrosion!

    • @OddLifeCrafting
      @OddLifeCrafting  5 років тому

      We actually tried to find one to measure the hull but we couldn’t find it.

    • @travismitchell2792
      @travismitchell2792 5 років тому +2

      Check out any industrial inspection company, particularly for oil field inspection. You can usually rent the unit and self perform. Its not complicated. Good luck!
