    -----
    This episode, I get some more help to remove a lot of Tally Ho’s hull planking. The volunteers grind and hammer copper rivets, while I finish lofting the intermediate frames inside the workshop. Finally I make the first frame template, and cut the first futtocks for that frame, shaping the Live Oak timber using the huge ship/bandsaw, a large circular saw, and the custom sawzall assembly.

    I agree it would be simpler and more practical to build a new boat or to pull it completely apart before starting. I also think you are a mad man to take on this project..... However, I cannot express enough how much admiration I have for you and the endeavour you have decided to undertake. It is obvious that others feel the same way from the way you have inspired the folks that have decided to help you. Any way, you maniac, keep on doing what you do, the world could do with a few more mad men like you in the world. Truly inspiring 👍

    I really enjoy this series. I volunteer at the Maine Maritime Museum, and we recently rebuilt a 73 foot sparred length schooner (built in Bath, ME 112 years ago) at the museum. Watching that boat (Mary E.) come back to life over the last year dovetails very well with this series, and I’m learning a great deal in the process. All of which is making me a better Docent on the boat, and hopefully a more informative guide for our museum guests.

    Enjoy watching the earnest joy of Leo's quest. Soon to enter my eighth decade and to witness such a calm and hopeful confidence Leo displays brightens my outlook. The remarkable quality of these young peoples journey is evident in these simple but elegant films. The old saying a picture is worth a thousand words seems to hold true. Leo's less is more editing, speaks for itself. Congratulations you should be commended for your sparse but always warm renditions. Your film is much like your drawings, revealing what you wish to summon. Leo brings the spirit of the wind calling the Tally Ho to us. I say thank you.

  • @Mmmyess
    @Mmmyess 6 років тому +126

    Here is why the restoration of the Tally Ho is not a new build. Starting with the first few episodes, it was clear that Leo intended only to make the boat sea worthy (and likely pretty her up a bit). As happens with many restorations, the deeper one digs, the more one finds that needs repair...or replacement, if repair is impossible or impractical. Recall the episode when Leo realized that the TH had been either incorrectly built or (more likely) damaged, resulting in an uneven curvature of the frame -- specifically, a flattening of (as I recall) the starboard side near the top. He agonized over the decision of whether to restore her to the deformed shape or rebuild her to the shape as designed by famous shipwright Albert Strange. He chose the latter, dramatically increasing the cost (in every sense) of the project. This is not a "blank canvas" build. Rather, it's a restoration -- one piece at a time -- of an entire boat.

      I understand what you are saying but knowing her history and a fair amount of boating Leo must have known this is part of Any rebuild. What's going to be left of the boat just her Name ? He is doing a great job but should have just built one from scratch. Because in the end it's going to be an old boat value wise even though everything is new.

    You might have a helper that welds pull off the saw guards, pull them gently apart and cut and weld 3/16” galvanized sheet shaped around 1/2”x3/16” angle framework using bolt on tabs. As a cabinet maker with a )not quite as) large band saw AND a Much Larger mill type band saw i know that if a blade breaks or slips off the wheel it can very easily cut through a leg or deeply into an abdomen. The sheet goods wood cabinet, though very well intentioned would not even slow that blade down but only maybe serve to change directions or creat a jagged whip. They are deadly and there is a great reason all new band saws come covered in metal with tight tolerance guides. Life is a risk and you cant eliminate all of them. But that’s an easy one. Thanks for great videos, sorry to sound like an OSHA Inspector but I went through 2 years Physical Ther with a woman whose leg was sawed half off by a saw in an unexpected moment.

Getting them all the right way round when they are split frames too must of taken a lot of careful thought . Well done everyone . Makes me think how much skill the old boatbuilders had constructing the massive warships and ships of the line etc , late tudor like the Mary Rose ,Henry VIII s naval behemoth there must of been a lot more fairing by eye in those days 👍 👍

    I am pleased with the fact that you are planning on reusing as many of the planks as possible and that you will use them where you can in the joinery of the interior. I understand the reason for the lofting, but then again, I have also been having the thoughts of taking the original soul/spirit of Tally Ho and replacing it. That being said, you are just trying to make her whole again and bring her back to Mr. Strange's original design. I imagine he would be very honored if he were still among the living. Well done, well done indeed.

    Speaking four years in the future, it's wonderful to see the process of figuring out how to make the frames, which tools to use, which order to do things...then figure out how to make them more efficiently, then figure out you need to get a big group of people to smash it out, then become an incredible people manager for short bursts during the two framing parties. Leo you've been an inspiration since the beginning. And a teacher. And an entertainer. I've dared to make wooden bungalows and a little boat in Indonesia on my own because of you. I have no doubt that you have zero time to read comments on old videos, but I'm re-binging all the old eps and needed to say something. Wish I could be there to see tally ho get wet.

    Happy birthday! So glad to see progress on your boat. I know you have been working really hard lofting which takes up a lot of time. I think you are on the right track and it is looking really good. Bet Steve is glad to see the Ga ship saw being used.
