Acorn to Arabella - Journey of a Wooden Boat - Episode 44: Putting Up the Molds

Need an explanation of bent frame construction? Here's the first part.
We've been working fast now and after assembling the backbone, it was time to install the molds. Which proved to be a bit more challenging than expected in our boathouse.
We will be steaming most of the frames in this weekend (september 22nd and 23rd 2018). Feel free to stop by and watch if you are in the area! Details to be found on the event we created on facebook. / 1855055254583847

Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building their own 38' wooden boat in their backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and beyond-sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.

    Hi everyone! I’m calling on the hive mind here for some help. I’ve had a couple issues in certain videos with a flicker after render. I have tried multiple different codecs but don’t know enough about those details to know exactly what is going on. Is there someone out there with the knowledge to be able to help with this? Thank you in advance! -Alix

    @Clifton you have that right. Another great vid guys. You know, there has to be a "better" way to transfer the line from the lofting floor to the frame that does not use the nails... But I somehow doubt it would be as fun. (Van Halen's Jump is springing to mind :P)

    This 'better' way would be ...? It's the step from two into three dimensions. I've learned to proceed said step some 33 years ago exactly the way Stephen and Alix (and Leo Sampson, by the way) do their transfer from loft to frame, and my teachers (three generations of boatbuilders in one yard ...) told me back then it was made like that "ever since". We tried other ways, put an episcope to work, put a beamer with "internal correction" to work in vertical or horizontal application, tried crossing vector lasers otherwise used to "burn" 3D forms from a tank of liquid resins and bored the hell out of a bunch of nerdy IT-students recurrently with our idea of "accurate" .... all with not the exact result the bloodily outdated roofing nail technique does still give You in terms of a correct sawline on Your frame off a wooden lofting floor.

    I don't know anything about boat building but I can relate to moving one thing and changing another. I have rigged bi-plane wings and that is just as tough and probably a little more critical in angle of attacks and twisting etc. Great job. Love the approach you make with your videos. Show the end product and then show the process. I'm hooked guys. I can't wait to see the rest of the build.

    All I have to say is that it took a looooong time to get to this point. However, you are moving so much faster now! I surmise that you made very sure to have a solid foundation. I also imagine what is was like to put a craft like this together before power tools. Not to take anything away from your efforts. I have no doubt that you could do the same job with only hand tools. But I know you are glad not have to. Keep the videos coming. They are very enjoyable and a pleasure to watch as you share your journey with us all.

    I thought the same about old style tools compared to power tools until I went and helped a traditional boat builder, you would be surprised how a sharp axe, chisel, can peel through timber in short order, I would hazard a guess that the number of boats built with old school methods far out number power tool builds in the world. 😀

    For the build and the project as a whole we tried very hard to form a solid base to build on, it was slow to start because of that but it is starting to pay dividends =) For this type of construction I would wager you are correct. I can remove more material in less time and noise with an adze than I can with a router. The adz can also cut a compound changing bevel with no fuss or jig. The caveat is that it takes time to get good with the hand tools. If I built another boat like this the adz would play a much bigger part in the early stages. The lipped adz is a game changer and it only took 28 years behind an axe and another 100 hours or so behind the adz to feel like I am getting good with the adz. The background with the axe helped a lot although they are swung very differently. A few thousand hours more with the adz and I will feel as confident with it as I do with an axe.
