I built a 10'8 runabout last year. Its a 40/50s style runabout used for boat racing. The hardest part of that build was the fairing of the stem. Especially being my 1st time doing it. So i built a jig to hold it center and it made it easier
Thanks for sharing. I with there was a way for you to include photos with your comment. Would love to see your runabout. With the Stem and now working on the chine top rails, I am spending way more time studying, thinking and planning than actual boat building.
Hi, I see you are twisting the Japanese pulling saw, a little painful to watch ... lol. I should tell you not to force the saw, let the saw do the work, you shouldn't need to force it or even put weight into the sawing. Try with a 24TPI Tennon Saw, as that's saw's back-bone will force you to keep that saw straight, teaching you the proper technique for sawing. Doing that should help you learn to saw easily. Nice work BTW
This is not about building a boat. It is about crafting an immaculate work of art.
Thank you, Phil. Hope you can see it in person this summer.
I do admire you pushing thru things not being exactly perfect. That is a lesson I have difficulty with.
Thank you. It will be harder, when I move past the structural components and start planking the slides of the boat… when appearance will matter.

Another great episode! But that garage is way to clean lol. Keep up the amazing work
Thank you. I am gaining confidence with every successful step.
As for the clean garage… Take a closer look at the basketballs stored under the boat.
@@Polymerman I noticed that. Lol
Maybe try adding some wax to the saw blade.
Thanks for the idea. I have now ruined 2 saws.
You are bending and twisting the saw blade, and that’s why it broke?
You are correct. I should only have pulled on that saw, and not pushed.

Thank you. I knew that I was doing something wrong. I just did not know what.
hello, do you have in the kit of plans, the instructions for the mechanicals parts please ?
thanks
I do not. You will have to ask Dan Lee about this.
