Slotted screws are the #1 choice where they may need to be removed far in the future for repairs. The slot can be easily cleaned of any filler, bedding compound, paint, etc. and still take a lot of torque.
I have been binging this series for the last few days and have been meaning to comment "You sure get a lot done for one person!' Now a one-handed one person! I know I am still way back in time, and still catching up, but keep up the good work!
It looks like you're doing pretty well after the injury, it's astounding what modern medical technology will do. I hope you have a smooth recovery and don't work too hard.
Hi Scott! Glad to know that all went well with your medical situation. Be careful now. COMPLETE recovery takes much longer than fifteen days. Keep up your excellent work! Best regards,
Bionic arm....lol.. 6 million dollar man!!! First thing I thought of. Glad to see you back Scott... Looking good.. Stay strong 💪💪💪 Keep on keeping on...
Recommend by UA-cam a couple months ago, started watching recently. Hello from a retired LEO from Kansas. Look at all the PT going on with that arm! Fresh water powered boat user for many decades. Know nothing about sailing but have often dreamed of doing the buying a boat and doing the IWW and offshore cruising. Trawler or tug design would be definitely my choice for sure!
Same thing happened to me 2 years ago. I didn't do anything back then and I still feel pain once in a while. Especially with weights over 25 pounds. You took the right decision. -1 for me... +1 for you!
I watched this episode with my 13 year old grandson. Great progress. He was pretty impressed that I had my Everett PD patch up on your salute to service wall. ha ha... Best wishes for your recovery, although that bum wing doesn't seem to be slowing your down too much.
Impressive!! I hope your arm heals soon so you will be able to work more easily. BTW, this girl will be strong as a tank when you finish which is GOOD!!!!
Nothing like a bit of jazz piano and tendon surgery to start a vid, Scott. Amazing procedure, pleased it went well and has not been too much of a problem. Proper old school using the wood's tendencies to place it on the hull. Keep well.
So good to see you back at it. I thought that was it for you with injury. Well done !!!!!!! Thanks for FINE videos of progress. Such a HUGE solo project, you are one of a kind, super builder. Was great to see you in video at Acorn to Arabella. Old farts like myself really appreciate your work.P Gilhooly. Corpus Christi, Tx
Please excuse me if this is a stupid question, but if you are going to skin the planking with two layers of plywood, would it not be easier and stronger, to dispense with planking altogether and just use an additional layer or layers of plywood instead. I am very much enjoying following your build and I hope your arm recovers quickly.
You answered two questions I had been thinking about. The type of screws being used and the butt blocks. I had noticed that Arabella,TallyHo and Western Flyer also used those type of screws and I wondered if it was a requirement in boat building.
If you are Carvel planking and it is the outside planking, the slotted head screws are much easier to remove later when planking needs to be replaced or repaired. Screws bungs get chiselled out and the slots can be cleared more easily than Philips or Robertson or torx.
Great to see you back and doing well after the surgery. The intro demo of the surgery was fantastic. I am surprised that as a future sailor you didn't have them put in a set of dead eyes so you could adjust the tension on the tendon as needed (lol). You are doing great work there. Question-what do you have planned for interior finish over the planking? Take care, stay safe and best wishes for a continued speedy recovery.
Okay, so now what am I supposed to do. I just kept clicking videos until I saw this was just released. Oh no! I was expecting it to be finished...LOL. Well, just like over at Sampson Boat Builders, I'll just to wait for the next chapter. Great Work.
Scott, very impressive job you’re doing with one good wing. Do you get many volunteers from your the guys from the force. Very neat, thanks for the video
Did you consider the square drive vinyl dip deck screws those things are Made to spend their life in wet conditions for planking and any other fasteners you may need
Glad you're feeling better and back at your project. After doing some exterior planking and stepping inside the boat can you feel it becoming stronger? Or does it take more planking for that to happen?
She's looking great,I wish I lived near you ,I would offer you my help,but being im from ALASKA ,that isnt gonna do it, I really do wish I was there,I would have no problem putting in the work too see her sail,what a day that's gonna be,take care be safe and may your needs be met when needed...
Just found your channel. Great you can work after your surgery. What wood are your planking? And probably obvious & I know they are more expensive & more work but why not use non steel rivets?
You're a trooper About slotted-drive screws... For most of my life, I dismissed slotted screws. They were invented so long ago---obviously those people were idiots who didn't have good ideas. Well, fast forward 35 years and now I can see why people use them. Turns out, if you need to make a screw, setting up a rotary broach to make a T-35 screw is difficult. And although angular alignment is a problem when driving slotted screws, you can't beat it for torque. Just use the right bit and stop every now and then to seat the bit in the slot. What's the thickness of the 2 additional layers of plywood?
You never mention the type of wood and plywood you are using for each application. Also, was it necessary to "line off" the planks on the sides of the hull so you don't end up at the sheer with a bunch of wide and narrow strips? You are doing a fantastic job---keep up the good work!
Just out of curiosity why just use clamps to glue up the stringers? It seems that putting a screw in at the ribs would help a lot more and guarantee that everything is tied together. What's your thoughts on this, out of curiosity.
I think because he's laminating the two layers of stringers together, he needs to have continuous contact between the two boards, with no gaps, so the epoxy can bond the two boards together totally?
I enjoy watching the video but cannot afford to build a boat but I am interested in the construction of the arched structure. Did you do a video on the construction of that?
So if you are going to cover the planking with 2 layers of plywood, then fiberglass, why do the planking at all? Why not just do 3 layers of plywood? What are the individual planks giving you on that first layer that plywood can't. Please explain your thinking on this.
you could do the whole boat in plywood but that would require additional stringers be let into the sides of the frames like was done for the bilge stringers. Solid wood visible on the inside of the boat will be "prettier".
u re a nutcase to see a former cop doing such nice craftsmanship is wonderfull , did u ever study for carpenter? u may know that i envy ur machinery and skill , respect mate :) keep up the gd worx :) btw get well soon and i really wanna see ur boat float. u tought me a lot already for my project to come later on. can i ever ask u stuff if i dont know how?
As a former Cop myself l can tell that there are many a cop that is multi functional in many aspects of life. I personally have ' Technical abilities ' that many " Qualified " artisans can only wish for to a level of them respecting me tremendously . All this l learned myself by motivation and ' stealing ' with my eyes . I'm 67 years old now but still busy with my hobby rebuilding a 69 Ford Escort with Lexus V8 and al homebuilt running gear. To this Ex Cop l do take my hat off for taking on such an enormous job with his injury and operation . Tip however is to always Listen to Elders when they say " don't do that you'll hurt yourself " and take it real easy . Straining that muscle could catch up to you in later years where nothing can be done to fix it. Respect from ex Cop ( now retired) in South Africa.
It's called bedding and he uses it because tar is a good sealant, but its most important characteristic is that it remains pliable. Pliability is important because of the undulations joints in wooden boats experience.
Hey don't let these people tell you slotted screws are no good. That is what all the wood boats plank with if they don't use the bronze rivet method. Boats for more than a hundred years used those. They are easier to get out than like a phillips would be. Phillips wouldn''t be good for this.
Can you please share where the clip about the elbow repair came from, thanks. I had one 19 years ago and never got a full explanation of what they did. Like a fool I delayed too long and they had to take material out of my leg.
Personally I find that much more torque can be applied with slotted screws than phillips. Which can actualy make them easier to drive if you maintain solid engagement. I hate electrical outlets and such that do not have slotted screws.
We will now call you Robo Scott. Was this your dream alone? I have rarely seen any help from your family. Most of the time it is you working by yourself.
My bride cant wait to get out on the water. I use extra hands from family and friends when necessary but it takes a special person who "enjoys" this kind of work!
@@SixPointsWoodWorks - I hear what you are saying exactly, Scott. You are very steadfast and tenacious, sir. I enjoy watching the thought and craftsmanship that you are putting into your vessel.
Currently one armed . I have watched from the very first episode, but this site is just one more that square space invade. This and many many other you tube channels existed for years without intrusive and overly long adverts. It has become a business making you tube content. That was NOT the initial intent for many. But sadly is now. So I for one, ''Won't take it''.
Well Matt. Could it be that I am trying to highlight a company who by making financial incentives, will, in a very short time fill the you tube screens with more adverts than contact. Or is that a bit difficult to comprehend.
Slotted screws are the #1 choice where they may need to be removed far in the future for repairs. The slot can be easily cleaned of any filler, bedding compound, paint, etc. and still take a lot of torque.
Glad to see the arm is fixed. Keep plugging away. We all like the progress so far.
Glad to see you back & mended. Great progress & thanks for sharing it all with us
Really good!! I’ve been following since the start
Nice work Scott!!
I have been binging this series for the last few days and have been meaning to comment "You sure get a lot done for one person!' Now a one-handed one person! I know I am still way back in time, and still catching up, but keep up the good work!
I watch a lot of UA-cam. This is the only show that makes me jump up and down when I see a new video in my feed. Great show!
It looks like you're doing pretty well after the injury, it's astounding what modern medical technology will do. I hope you have a smooth recovery and don't work too hard.
My first impression was this boat is flimsy. But now I'm a believer! Great work! Much respect!
Hi Scott! Glad to know that all went well with your medical situation. Be careful now. COMPLETE recovery takes much longer than fifteen days. Keep up your excellent work! Best regards,
Scott, great job. Always look forward to your videos. Welcome back.
My man, that's a lot of planking done in one video! Keep it up! Fantastic job!
Coming along nicely. It's about time to utilize scaffolding. Keep up the great work.
Glad you got fixed up! Love watching the progress!
Glad to see you’re back at it Scott and I’m glad your surgery went well too.
Good to see you back at it Scott. Look after that arm. Have been checking for updates every day... can’t wait to see the next video!!
Bionic arm....lol..
6 million dollar man!!!
First thing I thought of.
Glad to see you back Scott... Looking good..
Stay strong 💪💪💪
Keep on keeping on...

Happy to see you’re on the mend, keep in mind not to put too much on your good arm while Compensating for your injury...
Good to have you back!
I watched this episode with my 13 year old grandson. Great progress. He was pretty impressed that I had my Everett PD patch up on your salute to service wall. ha ha... Best wishes for your recovery, although that bum wing doesn't seem to be slowing your down too much.
That wall is shaping up pretty darn nice. When the boat is done it's going to be a fun project to figure out how to display them on board.
Love to see you back, Hope the Boat finished soon.
Whew. Looking at the thumbnail, I thought you lost your arm. Glad to see that it's slightly less serious.
It's amazing what surgery can do, and what you achieve with that surgery done! I'll keep watching :-)
Very interesting animation,
Absolutely crazy what is possible these days.
Hope you get well soon
Good to see you back!!
Super glad you talked about the screws... i had always wondered about that.
Impressive!! I hope your arm heals soon so you will be able to work more easily. BTW, this girl will be strong as a tank when you finish which is GOOD!!!!
Wow amazing repair operation, you are doing a great job. Love your work ethic. Have watched your build from episode 1. Keep up the great work Scotty!
Glad you're on the mend.
Really enjoy watching you and the progress you are making. Really neat job!
Welcome back . good job bro the boats looking good ! Glad to see you are feeling better! Im siked to see another vid from you!

I love the introduction, each any every episode I speak it with you! Nice and interesting work, thanks for sharing. Best greetings from Germany
That bicep repair is amazing stuff.

Thanks for sharing the reasoning behind the slotted and Phillips head screws.
Hope you get 100% soon, have a nice recovery and keep up the fantastic work!
Greetings from Brazil!
Impressive. Grit and determination!
No one would ever need that many clamps..... Scott: Hold my beer.
.... some people hoard TP, others clamps.
Good to see you're doing OK Scott.
I have been clicking your site daily too.
Nice video. You're doing an amazing job!
Damm Scott even one handed you still da man

They sell stainless steel toggles like that at West Marine .. hahaha..
Glad to see you got that arm fixed.
Did you consider the square drive vinyl dip deck screws those things are Made to spend their life in wet conditions for planking and any other fasteners you may need
hi the boat is looking very good
Glad you're feeling better and back at your project. After doing some exterior planking and stepping inside the boat can you feel it becoming stronger? Or does it take more planking for that to happen?
Scott, she is looking beautiful!! DD
Enjoyed every minute of it! I liked the music also...can you share the name (song and artist)? Thanks
Best of luck ,follow your dream ,if I lived near you it would be helping you every chance I got ,I built two small boats and the principal
She's looking great,I wish I lived near you ,I would offer you my help,but being im from ALASKA ,that isnt gonna do it, I really do wish I was there,I would have no problem putting in the work too see her sail,what a day that's gonna be,take care be safe and may your needs be met when needed...
You can NEVER have too many clamps !!
Just found your channel. Great you can work after your surgery. What wood are your planking? And probably obvious & I know they are more expensive & more work but why not use non steel rivets?

What's the thickness of the 2 additional layers of plywood?
Take it easy on your bad bicep dude!!
This is going to be one heavy boat
Saw the same make of boat (dark blue) @ Kewalo Boat Habour in Hawai'i. Yet it was fitted with Paravanes Stabilizers
You definitely need more clamps! :-)
great jig
You never mention the type of wood and plywood you are using for each application. Also, was it necessary to "line off" the planks on the sides of the hull so you don't end up at the sheer with a bunch of wide and narrow strips?
You are doing a fantastic job---keep up the good work!
Can you possible send me a link of what the finished product will look like? Love your videos.
search "diesel duck trawler" and you'll see lots of home built and production examples in various sizes.
Well done , like myself just keep going.
Just out of curiosity why just use clamps to glue up the stringers? It seems that putting a screw in at the ribs would help a lot more and guarantee that everything is tied together. What's your thoughts on this, out of curiosity.

Check our website at www.seadreamerproject.com, I have info there.
Love this build. I'm no boat builder by any means but would now be a good time to run electric and plumbing?
absolutely, we'll do electric and plumbing rough in before final interior work.
So if you are going to cover the planking with 2 layers of plywood, then fiberglass, why do the planking at all? Why not just do 3 layers of plywood? What are the individual planks giving you on that first layer that plywood can't. Please explain your thinking on this.
you could do the whole boat in plywood but that would require additional stringers be let into the sides of the frames like was done for the bilge stringers. Solid wood visible on the inside of the boat will be "prettier".
Please let me know what camera you use
Canon M50, link in description.
qual epsódio que acabou a construção do navio, ou ainda não foi concluido
will gaps between the planks like at 15:57 affect the seaworthyness of the ship? Or will you fill gaps like those later?
There will be two layers of plywood over the planks, and fiberglass on top of the plywood to provide a barrier to the water.
Sure hope you didn’t fall off face of the earth. We seriously miss your post. P Gil. In CC, TX

W.O.W.
Steel screws will be eaten away in no time by salt water.
Tell me what wood do you use?
with all the new high tech sealants around why do you use roofing tar for sealer
It's called bedding and he uses it because tar is a good sealant, but its most important characteristic is that it remains pliable. Pliability is important because of the undulations joints in wooden boats experience.
Is this boat the twin of the boat on saltandtar?
same designer but different designs. however they are very similar.
Hey don't let these people tell you slotted screws are no good. That is what all the wood boats plank with if they don't use the bronze rivet method. Boats for more than a hundred years used those. They are easier to get out than like a phillips would be. Phillips wouldn''t be good for this.
hahahahahaha greetz from Germany this is LOL!
I often handle my wood one handed, but sometimes you do just need second hand on it, especially when dealing with a wide girth.
Can you please share where the clip about the elbow repair came from, thanks. I had one 19 years ago and never got a full explanation of what they did. Like a fool I delayed too long and they had to take material out of my leg.
search for "distal bicep tendon rupture"
I hope that's not red oak. It absorbs water very quickly and rots not long after,
Personally I find that much more torque can be applied with slotted screws than phillips. Which can actualy make them easier to drive if you maintain solid engagement. I hate electrical outlets and such that do not have slotted screws.

How is it inconsistent?
