  • We're just about ready to put the caps on our V-Bottom skiff but first we need to prepare the tops of the in-whales and guards to receive them. I'm going to use a pencil to mark the edges of each piece that I DON'T want to plane down, that way I can focus on planing down each side with my number 5 planer until it starts to creep up on those pencil lines.

    Make sure that when you take the V-Bottom skiff out for its "shakedown cruise", you have ZZ Top playing in the background! Anyone who follows this channel knows what I'm talking about. Thank you Lou for this series and I look forward to Orca.

    Man, 9 seconds in and watching Lou with the planer in the background with this beautiful boat taking up the whole screen, those graceful lines, I'm just struck with how great this skiff looks! So pleasing to the eyes! Just beautiful!

      My wood shop teacher used to hit us in the back of the head with a piece of oak if we were planning incorrectly. He carried that stick in his back pocket.

    Well, you could of course use a compass plane like a Stanley 113, but with the changing curve of the Wales/sheerline, you'd have to consistently change the plane to match the correct curve where your planing at. So, a jack/smoothing plane is actually preferable, on angle as Lou is doing. That way you can follow the curve as it changes.

    Hand planing is my favorite part of woodworking. I love all these tips. Thanks.

    I love hand planning wood. I just finished hand planning a large walnut countertop and I loved every minute of the work. This is fun to watch.

    Awesome job Lou! How cool would it be, if whoever bought your work skiff showed up, and we saw the two side-by-side!?! If it was me, I'd absolutely make that trip... but unfortunately it's not.

    It sounds like you are calling part of the boat end Whale, or enwhale, or end rail? can you verify that parts name.

      Inwale, it’s the board that is connected across the vertical ribs on the inboard side. It would be the inner support for the gunwale (pronounced “gunnel”) and the guard would be the outer support. The gunwale would be a board laid flat on these supports and cover up the top ends of the ribs.

    "Skidders." So that's what they're called. I hate those things.
