Nick Offerman : Creating the Mold Stations
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Last fall actor and woodworker NIck Offerman (NBC's Parks and Recreation) found himself with some time to kill in New York City while his wife was working on Broadway, so he decided to build a couple of Bear Mountain Boats canoes. After reading Canoecraft, Nick produced this canoe building video as a companion to Canoecraft. This sample focuses on Creating the Mold Stations. Visit www.bearmountainboats.com for more info on this DVD.
With this channel and Primitive Technology, I'm not sure why any other youtube channel exists. Is there a reason to ever look at another channel? I can't see myself ever needing anything more.
JiffyJames85 aaww man ur missing out check out AvE, codys lab, Matthias wandel, lots of good stuff out there
JiffyJames85 although primitive technology is amazing
nick longstaffe Agreed! AvE FTW!

Without the glorious beard or stache the voice coming out seems dubbed in lol. Beautiful craftsmanship none the less
dunno if anyone gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all of the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Been watching with my girlfriend these days =)
@Pablo Duncan Yup, I've been using instaflixxer for years myself :)
@Pablo Duncan yea, I have been using InstaFlixxer for years myself =)
@Pablo Duncan yup, I've been watching on instaflixxer for months myself =)
Seen this type of molds year after year. Just fine for "oh it will float" canoe building. If you want a custom design(something thats not in a book duh someones so-so family standard designs), you design your own. Built 22 since 1969( on #23 now). I did one my first copying someone elses forms. Every canoe since then has been laid out on the floor with waterline point plotting(with a canoe racers need for speed& manuverbility). Use a "T"- shaped strong back made from glued smaller 3/4" plywood in staggered side by side glueing(i control straightness in making a 1&1/2" wide by 4" tall what ever lenght for my canoe. Simple 2 x 4" board with the laminated plywood(two thickness of plywood) in an upside down "T" shape. I centered the stong back to be laid out thru each form(uses far less pylwood than seen in this vid). Most i have done have been 8" between form cent-lines on strongback, but if you want to see the most far out tech ever done for a canoe prototype build click on my icon, and expand to see my 3 racer canoe builds.
You're old as hell, get outta here.
He knows what he's about, son.

audio? there's no audio in woodworking!!!

Nick should've been People mag's "Sexiest Man"... sorry Paul.
His laugh cracks me up
A fixed belt sander would've been quicker and more accurate.
the smart man knows how to get precise symmetrical forms using a router and a half template, but the lazy man only sees the extra step and not the speed. cant a man just build a boat in peace?
they change size progressively , getting them mixed up? who could do that
Nick says 2 and a half sheets of ply for the molds for the nomad 17, i am about to start marking out the molds but i cant figure out how to get away with any less than 4 sheets , has anyone done a nomad and how many sheets did you use for the molds,
is he the perfect man? A man who loves his wife, someone who can make her laugh and also knows hard work. wow
Jane Rose he’s missing a beard though!
Yeah I have all that and the beard, :)
Wow Nick I barely recognize you without your stash. By the way my first time seeing u was the movie Groove as a cop officer Offerman and obviously u made an impression for a movie made so long ago. No I'm not cop lol but still awsome.
I like how you wrote this as if he's ever going to read it.
If I could say anything about drafting it’s that you should look where you’re going not where you’re at that is the brains best way of drawing a line
nice shop. I've never seen your shows or movies, always working lol. these videos are tops.
That NOMAD is some code name or what's the meaning?
Now I remember why I didn't do well at carpentry, I don't have the patience for it. I prefer to just wing it and just do it on the fly, which is ok for simple stuff like tables but not for construction...
You would think a kit for that much money would include the mold stations.
Just started watching...Bless you for not subjecting us to the machine noise!
“I built a canoe especially for the occasion”
great man here

great pointers, on what was fuzzy for me.
Can somebody pls tell me what apron he is wearing?
Would it be more practical to glue the patterns to the plywood, make the cuts, and then sand off the pattern? I've never built a boat before, but I've used that method on other projects.
- - only if you are okay with destroying the pattern. Those patterns are usually over $100 and can be used to build multiple boats, so sanding them away is rather a waste.
What he could have done though was glue them to a seperate plywood hammer a nail sideways into the pattern, then press the plywood he intended to cut on to the nails and hammer. When he lifts up he should have groves to hammer nails sideways in again and use those as his tacks for the battons to make the fair lines. Visit tips from a shipwright's youtube channel for his sports dory series to see him do it in person
Aidan Hodge once the molds are cut you can make multiple boats from them.
Spray adhesive the mold to the wood and cut it with a jigsaw.
Um. Tape?
lol nice production Offerman not really for entertainment...not really for education....what the hell was this? A 7:30 long intro to a kinda funny cheddar cheese joke
It makes more sense when you see the whole thing - this is actually an excerpt from "Fine Woodstrip Canoe Building with Nick Offerman." It works as a companion to the book Canoecraft, a guide to building your own canoe. Nick finished this boat, Huckleberry, and paddled it in the harbour in Red Hook. I hope he's entertaining, but he also takes his woodworking seriously!
Agreed...but to say he takes his woodworking serious would be an insult to Offerman...this makes more sense if one has heard him talk about his woodworking model. What's more Offerman has said himself this wasn't his "project" (the video series).
He is generally entertaining, but as a person I find him inspiring...particularly because of how he sets up his woodshops.
The only actor I really respect
Offerman in real life looks and sounds like he's back with Tammy One.
what's the name of the book your using. thanks
This an excerpt from the companion video to our book Canoecraft. You can find 'em both on our website, bearmountainboats.com
Try sanding with the plywood sanding block Marc uses “ the wood whisper” I think it would spring to the curve better and a no 20 Stanley of s no 113 circular plane could work.
Where would you come down on the idea of using some sort of digital technique to transfer the pattern? I've been building a lot of props out of foam, and I'm working on an automated wire hot-wire cutter which could be modified to scribe a pattern on a sheet of plywood. Is that more or less wholesome than using the carbon paper technique?
You'll want accurate forms, obviously, but I can't see any reason carbon paper is absolutely required. Let us know how it works out if you try it!
