- Опубліковано 13 кві 2024
- What are the different bronze blocks and cleats for? And where do they go on the boat? These questions are answered in this episode of The Art of Boat Building by boat builder Bob Emser. Bob shows how flap wheels and disks are used to finish the bronze casting. After casting and finishing the bronze blocks and cleats for the Haven 12¹⁄₂ Bob explains their different purposes and where they are installed on the boat. The Haven 12¹⁄₂ requires 10 block and 6 cleats.
“If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.”

You certainly make it beautiful, Bob. Thanks for taking us with you on the build.
Thanks for watching
This build is just amazing, truly a work of art.
I think your next build should be a total build from paper.
It should be a Bob Emser design. Maybe a day sailer with a tiny cabin.
Your bronze work is exquisite as always Bob. Beautiful and functional. The bronze wear strip for the jib lines was a nice touch as well. Another great video and thanks for sharing!
You have done a beautiful job on that boat and can't wait to see her on the water.
I agree
Thanks Tom!
I am on my first try on a small sail boat .
which I learned much from your work.
Keep on the good work
Always amazed by your bag of tricks and commitment to craftsmanship. If you have the footage,
can you demo the forming of the half-round to the combing profile? I would have thought that the strength of the bronze profile was perpendicular to the curve, but clearly you didn't have a problem. Maybe post a 15 second "Short"?
Unfortunately I don't have any video and don't have any more half round I could demonstrate on. It was quite easy to bend small amounts at a time. After I got it close I was able to bend the final amount as I screwed each section.
Thanks for watching!
Se um de seus objetivos era demonstrar a sua arte na construção, você está de parabéns! Alcançou.
Estou muito feliz por você e também muito ancioso para vê-lo navegando.
Saudações.

If one of your goals was to demonstrate your art in construction, congratulations are in order! Reached. I'm very happy for you and also very excited to see you sailing. Greetings.

Skylark is shining and ready. May she keep safe the souls who sail her. All the best for launch day.
Attention to the details down to the clocking of the screws. It's always Beautiful on your channel Bob, Thanks for sharing !
Another great video and exquisite bronze work. I only wish I wasn’t on the wrong side of The Pond to see your launch!
You and me both!
Thanks for watching!
Bob, a crazy good amount of craftmanship!! Love the mortise and the block plane you used. Cheers. See you on the 28th.
Me too Bill. Looking forward to going on a sail with you!
Hi guys, all of those brass fittings absolutely fantastic , I’d love to have patience to be able to make something like that but anyway keep up the good work. Lucky we have talented people like yourself to do good job from Australia.
I look forward to every video! Truly impressive work.
Hope to see ya at the Wooden Boat Show! My family and I are hoping to come down there from the cape!
I'll see you then!
Really amazing work, Bob! Your bronze parts look stunning! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks, you too!
Boat bling! Thanks, Bob, your videos are so informative.
Glad you like them.
Thanks for watching!
Very inspiried to up my game to make it more beautiful. Your attention to detail in awesome keep up the excellent work Bob.
Enjoyed.
Pure craftsmanship as always.
How many times can you remove and replace a screw in wood before you have to worry about holding power? Also, what is the science to tightening a screw into wood... how much torque is too much?
You turn until the screw is clocked appropriately - that is the way :). Honestly, you have to feel the pressure as you should be screwing into wood in by hand in these kind of projects (I build furniture and it is the same). And, yes, there is a too much, especially with softer metal fasteners. Having the correct pilot hole is key. If I am struggling to turn the screw the head is about to twist off, leaving the body of the screw embedded in the wood - ask me why I know.
Machine screws, washers and nuts..
That's fascinating; thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Simplesmente fantástico a qualidade e o conteúdo que traz esses seus vídeos. Você Bob, merece todo o respeito e consideração pela disposição em realizar e registrar essa atividade. São todos vídeos explicativos e bem fundamentados no conhecimento, experiência e pesquisa. Recomendo a todos que tem interesse no assunto, é muito bom o trabalho realizado.
Bob, me tornei um fã seu.
Obrigado.
The quality and content that these videos bring are simply fantastic. You, Bob, deserve all the respect and consideration for your willingness to carry out and record this activity. They are all explanatory videos and well based on knowledge, experience and research. I recommend it to everyone who is interested in the subject, the work done is very good. Bob, I've become a fan of yours. Thanks.
Nice
Bob, You certainly have done an amazing amount of fine work since you started five years ago on this project. The quality of work is excellent and you have done so much in the way of innovation as well. I was wondering if you are going to provide any auxiliary or non-sail propulsion for Skylark? The plans show oar locks, but I didn’t see any oarlock hardware in your collection of bronze. Seems like rowing this boat would have to be standup. Have you considered the electric pod propulsion that is available for boats like the Haven? Thanks for all the great videos. I’m 2 years into my Haven, but only have 4 planks on the bottom.
Hi Robert, No, I'm not planning on auxiliary power (pod, trolling motor) I am planning on making an oar or 2. You are correct as the plans do show oar locks. I've never seen anyone row a Haven 12¹⁄₂ seen it would be a stand up sit on the centerboard trunk situation. While at the Wooden Boat School we did move the boat with the rudder by stern sculling. It is quite surprising how easily the boat moved. Recently during my online boat clinic, Boat Building Bootcamp, we had a discussion about stern sculling with the rudder. One of the members shared a story about being about 3 miles from the marina, with no wind and lack of cell service , he sculled back to the marina in less than an hour.
It's exciting that you're building a Haven 12¹⁄₂. Currently there are 5 members in the Bootcamp that are building Haven 12¹⁄₂ or the Some Sounds. If you interested in learning more and want a supportive community during your build I would like to invite you to schedule a free no obligation call with me. I'd be happy to answer any question you might have about building your Haven 12¹⁄₂.
Here is a link where you can schedule a call.

I'll look forward to chatting with you.
Cheers,

Bronze is beautiful!
Outstanding. Nuff said.🙂🙂
Word
This has absolutely been one of my favorite projects on UA-cam. Your boat is one of the most beautiful physical things that I have ever seen. I am curious, though, as to how much you'd sell her for had she been a commission. And I understand you might not want to answer that question--no worries, if that's the case.
Thank you that's a wonderful complement! It would be very hard to put a dollar amount on "Skylark" so many factors. It certainly would be much more than the current price of other Haven 12¹⁄₂
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful. I don't know anything about sailboats, but I admire the results of your work. Additionally, I don't understand the forces involved, but I assume the hardware, even though it looks a bit dainty, is suffocated to handle the forces caused by actual sailing. In other words, it's all probably tougher/stronger than it looks?
As much a work of art as one of workmanship.
I second FairWind fasteners. Excellent product and service and very good prices. I often have a hard time getting to the $15 minimum, but we can always use some extra fasteners.
Couldn't agree more!
Looking forward to seeing you at the the boat show Bob!! Unable to attend on launch day 😢will you have skylark out of the water on Sat & Sun?
Skylark will be in the water during the show. She will be docked at the south end of the Seaport.
Look forward to seeing you then.
Hi Bob, good stuff as always! I cringed when you took the saw to the coaming, how hard was that? One other thing you might consider would be a couple of cleats on the covering boards aft, close to the transom, for dock lines. My first time out I had to run a line through the traveler to tie up to the dock and then after, added two small cleats Not sure if I will make it to Mystic but I'll try. cheers, Chuck
Thanks Chuck, Yes, I am planning on aft cleats on the covering boards. I do hope you can make it to the show I would love to have you there.
Cheers,
Bob
Am I the only one who thinks Dolfinite looks delicious?
Is a boat considered seaworthy without cup holders?
Beautiful brass, Bob. Will you have a way of securing the traveler block and the block that attaches to the pad eye when trailering or when the lines are slack so they don’t rub on the wood?
Had this same thought!
All lines will be removed from the boat during transport.
Thanks for watching.
