How to Turn Over/Flip a Boat Hull by Yourself and Building a Boat Cradle S2-E34
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 жов 2020
- In the episode (S2-E34 )of The Art of Boat Building we see how to turn over a boat hull by yourself. Small boats are built on a mold upside down. Once the hull is finished the boat is flipped so that the topside can be completed. Once flipped over the boat must have a place to firmly rest. The best solution is a boat cradle. Building a boat cradle is covered in this episode. To Flip a Boat Hull by yourself will require lifting equipment.

Incredible how the equipment today liberates us, gives a single man the power to do the work of many, but I do not take his merit from incredible work, intelligence, planning and a lot of patience in what he does, my congratulations, you inspire me !
Thanks Wagner!
I made a 50 last night

I find there is nothing more satisfying than finally being able to sweep where the mould has been parked for weeks or months.
Is it an Art or Science? Looks like a lot of Physics and Mechanical Engineer lol. U are the new Boat Flipping Master congrats on beating Glass Goat!!!
Milestone reached! That went really well, she looks great.
Congratulations, on your milestone! 'Beware the Boat of Damocles.'
Thanks! Ha ha good one.
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding It was looking a bit ' iffy' at one point but you held your nerve while all those watching held our breath. Looks great.
Acorn to Arabella sent me and I’m glade Steve did !
Welcome I’m glad you’re here.
Aside from your craftsmanship the world needs more people like you.
Thanks Dale!
Of course the flip went very smooth. Everything you do is well-considered and your foresight is legendary! Your boat is a real beauty, sir. No doubt she'll be the star of the lakes!
Now every aspiring garage workshop wannabe is going to want both an electric overhead lift crane and manual one in their shop!!!!! Great video Bob. Nice lift and rotate. Thanks for sharing.
Well done Bob. It looks fantastic!
Beautiful.
That must have been such a thrill to see.
Lovely lines! Can't wait to see it finished
What a thrilling achievement, Bob. Well done and thanks for sharing this.
Congratulations, Bob! Big milestone reached!!
Bob, congrats on reaching this milestone. It certainly qualifies as another whisky moment! Love your videos. Keep 'em coming.
Congratulations, Bob; this is quite a milestone!
Thank you Bob for showing me what is possible, true inspiration.
Beautiful!
Awesome Bob. Gotta feel good to get her flipped!
Such a beautiful thing!
Great job, I'm sure you are stoked to get to this point.
BEAUTIFUL JOB - piece of art. A treat to watch!
Congrats Bob! Looks great! Thanks for the cradle making section too, think I will build one for my project :)
Sublime craftsmanship. Kudos Bob.
Wow! Congrats!
2 things. 1, great timing as I am about to do this very thing and will be utilizing this. 2, this was the most relaxing 28 minutes of life that I have in a week, thank you for that.
Agreed on the second one. I'm back for seconds :))
Ingenuity. Working alone requires it! Thanks for the video.
Congratulations. Amazing job!
Excellent job Bob. With everything else happening this year I thought I was stressed until you started flipping the boat. I don't know how you felt but I was nervous as all get out. So glad that part is over. I will say the background music helped keep me for chewing of my finger tips. Take care, stay well and congratulations on passing this milestone in the build.
Congrats Bob , and stay safe
Sitting here, waiting for lunch. Great videos...cheers...rr Normandy, France
She looks lovely, an important milestone, well done.
I like hearing your stories of your time as an artist. I too was a professional artist until I gave it up after I became disabled. I love your attention to detail and artistry., but I an especially jealous of your studio! Keep up the good work.
Wow the boat is looking great! You are truly a craftsman.
She looks beautiful flipped over! And you’re right. It looks a lot bigger. The inside is so pretty. Great job! Excellent video.
thank-you for putting in the metric conversion !
My pleasure. Glad it helps!
Looks great! Congratulations.
Good Video, I did not have to toggle between the music and your useful explanations. The workshop you've got is comprehensive & impressive. Thank You, and congratulations.
I am always amazed at how th making of a jig is as much a work of art as the project.
Very nicely done. BZ! Great work as always. BTW really like the watch.
Really fantastic work, Bob! It really went smooth! 😃
But yeah, planning things is always a good idea, because it makes things much easier! Even when they're not!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Great work Bob!
i love your work and videos, this is awesome!!!
Brilliant!! Great video. Chapeau as they say in Tour de France.
Cool, thanks!
Wonderful episode......
Hi Bob, congratulations and a big thank you for sharing it. I’ve been watching right from the beginning. I love the boat, I love the build and especially I love the way you present it. Looks as if building a boat is as casual as anything. Supercool....
Thanks 👍
Looking good Bob
I cant wait for the next video of the build!!
Looks great! Congrats on this milestone Bob.
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing! I have wondered for a while how the boat would be flipped.
Nice job. Love your boat.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Nice done Bob.
Great job. I have a nice little Monty 17 sailboat, but watching your channel is making me want to build a boat even though I don't need one. Dangerous.
Absolutely beautiful job Bob. I agree with Wesley so relaxing to see you work with such patience & skill. THANKS Ingat kuya
If she sails as good as she looks it will be fantastic. You be proud. You done good. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay healthy.
Congrats!!
Well thought out, planned and executed operation, as usual. Your workshop methodology is a real time philosophical lesson in how to live.
Each task considered, planned and executed with diligence. I like it!
Awesome!!!
What a milestone! Beautiful. Treat yourself to a nice cold drink; your craftsmanship and care are inspiring. Can hardly wait for the next movies!
Thank you! Will do!
Wow Bob, another fantastic session of art, science, beauty and your amazing sailboat. Your clever nature and ability to solve any challenge makes me think you would have been a very fine engineer. Thanks again.
Thanks Michael, My Dad was an engineer. I like to think he was looking down with a smile. He was a great inspiration and influence on me. I'm a very lucky fellow.
As far as i know it, from older folks than me, when you flip the boat, is when the boat is born. :)
Sounds right!
Congratulation another milestone achieved. Herzlichen Glückwunsch.
Excellent planning and execution. Well constructed video, too. Myself, I would have braced the dolly with diagonals, horizontal and vertical, to avoid racking on anything other than the smoothest surface.
Thanks Bob.
My pleasure!
Amazing how they radiate far more character when they are the right way up.....
Indeed!
Keep shop floor clean safety and work environment Quality Work
That was a bit of a pucker moment when that thing was in the air! Nice work sir
Very smooth. I went to school on this video, I'm flipping my skiff in a few weeks. Nice build!
Thanks Rob. Good luck with your flip!
It is so heartwarming to see how you honour your father in something he taught you long ago. I have a question: does all these layers of protective paint still allow the planks to swell with water?
Nice job on the cradle and turning the boat. Good fit up on the keel also.
wish my keel would have fit that well!
Imwas very much suprprised that it came off the mold so easily
Great work, thanks for uploading this series. What hat are you jack stands pivoting on and do they lock, or do they just use the weight of the boat to hold in to place?
I think that has earned you a small glass of something nice.
Beautiful! I like the two-hoist system, rather than rolling it in a sling. It seems straightforward.
When you were lowering, I noticed a peg in the ballast keel to align it with the hull. Maybe there's not too much to say, but can you comment on the alignment? Seems like it could be tricky, and once it's sitting on the keel, there's not much you can adjust.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
I have no words 😍😍💖
Great Video, as I do not have to toggle the volume between music, and when you narrate. Your workshop is impressive with your electric gantry, and height. Good info, and explanations. Many Thanks . Keep Well.
Thank you very much!
What a handsome boat Bob! I know you’re excited to have it flipped and upright. Interesting video, and good to see pictures of Nita.
Thanks 👍Kev! Do your remember that old cart?
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding I sure do Bob. Many a stone carted on that. I even busted my shin on it a time or two.
At least with your editing it appeared that the flip was pretty easy. It would be interesting to see your crane set-up that made this flip go so smoothly.
YES Bob must have two tracks for his two cranes at 25:00 the lift changed sides in he blink of an eye. .
I thought the Chris Craft seem to shrink when I flipped it upside down. I looks great!
Step 1: Have a workshop with 2 gantry cranes haha :)
Very well done. Just as I was about to scream at the screen to out some padding between the chain hoist and the paint job, you reached over and grabbed some and did just that. Great minds, I suppose. Smooth opperator, my good man. Well done! I suppose since you took the moulds apart, you won't be building a second one right away. Will the moulds be up for sale? I cant afford it, but some viewer might be interested.
ok i don't have the cranes or gantry but that is fabulous
Congratulations Bob! I told you that you were about to have a moment. how did you sleep? I guess that I did the same thing. realized I was tired but then, I had help coming the next day when I flipped mine. Do you find yourself just standing there staring at the inside? I'm really happy for you. she looks awesome. nice fit on the keel too!
Can't wait to see some varnish/sealant on all that interior wood. She'll shine like a new penny.
Whoot whoot gave us a Flip
Nita is a nice name for a boat. I think it means gift
👏👏👏
Another great video. 2 comments. 1) How did you get the hoist to the other side of the other hoist when you got past the center of gravity? I'd love to see the whole system. 2) I love that you showed yourself sweeping and scooping up the waste. It shows that not only are you a celebrated artist but a humble worker. I would imagine that shows in your family life also. This one thing speaks volumes.
1. I just made a post you can see under the community tab. I uploaded a video about the hoist set up and some unedited footage of the flip.
2. Thank you! I appreciate your sediment.
Cheers,
Bob
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding Thanks for getting back to me. My wife and I want to go see your sculpture at Redington beach. Do you have an address? I can't find a location. Or is it right out on the beach?
@@peepawhebert6479 The sculpture are on the Bellair Causeway. About 25 min north of Redington Beach.
Great to see the boat this way. Just out of curiosity how much do think she weighs without the keel ballast? And what do you think the final weight will be when all said and done?
I’m guessing that she weighs about 300-400 lbs as of now. As I mentioned in the video the designed displacement weight is 1400 lbs. So as Archimedes taught us her weight is equal to the displacement.
It is great to see her upright thanks!
Thanks for watching and you continued support.
Cheers,
Bob
Everything is different now!
Hello best wood building channel just get into your channnel question I didn’t see any special sealing between to transom and the planking
Is working under a suspended load really a best practice? Especially alone.
I have to flip a fiberglass car body. This came with the kit I bought and the seams are so thin I went through the body itself sanding down The parting lines. I'm pretty sure I have to reinforce all the seams from underneath and you can't lay fiberglass upside down plus it needs to be sanded to get a good bite or connection. I don't have an overhead hoist and I envy the fact that you do! I'm thinking about putting plywood or attaching plywood to each end cut into a semicircle and just rolling it. If you have any suggestions I would love to hear them you're obviously a master Carpenter and have a good ideas.
Hi Dan,
I think, as you suggested, that the best approach is the plywood circle.
A few days ago my friend Lou from Tip From a Shipwright posted a video of him flipping a 23' skiff with that method.
Here is a link if you haven't seen it:
ua-cam.com/video/Sqs6d7HxxP8/v-deo.html
He shows and interesting roller system as he had limited space. Take a look and let me know how it goes.
Cheers,
Bob
this is very trivial but what watch do you wear in this vid with the orange strap?
That is an Art of Boat Building watch I designed and had made. I’m thinking of making them available once I get a marketplace section on my website. Is this something you think folks would be interested in?
and the thing you put together just to hold the boat is of better quality of anything i ever made out of wood.
Looks amazing Bob. I just don’t understand how you disconnected the molds and cross members from the boat. I couldn’t imagine you crawling through all the mold apparatus to unscrew anything. How was that done? Or could the boat be lifted off the molds all along and I just missed that part?
Hi Michael,
Correct. The hull lifted completely off the mold. At 18:35 you can see the hull coming off the mold.
Thanks for watching!
I had a slight sad moment watching the mold being dismantled rather than saving it for more sister boats in the future. I wasn't expecting there to be but I did have a passing wish to see more of that beautiful craft come from his studio.
I concur. Was hoping to see a small fleet built from that mould. Or at least sell it, built, to the next newbie builder. But I suppose it still holds value as a mould kit for resale.
I was wondering if that strongback and mold setup would stay intact. Nope! So much work, but as Bob once said, "You have to build a thing to then build a thing to then put it on the boat."
She sits nice and you never looked nervous.
Do have a music list. There is one tune that you've used in several episodes which I really enjoy.
Hi David,
Here is a music list in order of their play in the video:
Slow Time Over Here by Midnight North
Sunshine on Sand by Unicorn Heads
Et Voila by Chris Hagen
Downpour by Patino
Sideways Samba by Audionautix
I also add it in the video description.
Thanks for watching.......and listening!
Cheers,
Bob
Et voila... thanks, Bob.
Very interesting and useful as I'm about to do my first flip! Could I ask how the temporary transverse boards were attached to the boat? They obviously take a lot of strain and weight during the flip but looked as though they were just attached to a frame - is that correct? Thanks for your help.
Yes, they are attached to frames. The hull without decks, interior fitting and a ballast keel is not that heavy. They are quite important to keep the shape of the boat at the widest part of the beam.
Best wishes on your flip. Exciting milestone!
@@TheArtofBoatBuilding Many thanks!
