Building ORCA - Episode 11: Completing the Centerline
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This week we're getting out and installing our Horn Timber, the last piece on ORCA's centerline. We first need to cut the timber down to size with a chainsaw so we can get it up on to our shipsaw. The horn timber will run from the top of the stern post all the way to the transom of the boat. We then need to create another mortise and tenon to connect the two pieces, only this time the tenon in the stern post is going to go all the way through our horn timber. Once we chop that hole with our chainsaw we can connect both pieces and we'll have the entire centerline of ORCA together. The next step is making the transom and then rabbiting the entire keel.

ME TOO.. I hope Louis os OK....My father RIP was a huge boat enthusiast, had his own Marine Surveyor company, did sea trials, purchase surveys, did a lot of work for insurance companies when their insured suffered a loss.. Did consulting work for some of the old big name builders ..Silverton.. Viking .. He was the Archdiocesean of Phladelphia's insurance investigator .. property loss adjuster but his love was boats like my grandfather, his dad.. taught various courses for US Coast Guard, etc.. We owned a 30ft Owens always spent time working with my Dad on that boat.. so I came upon this ORCA build w/Louis and just found it so enjoyable to watch.. I binge watched every ORCA build .. then Nothing .. So I hope all is OK... and just can't wait for episode 12 !!!!!

I think many feel the same. I suspect that 'Orca' is a project of such a scale and application just too much to offer step by step video reports often. Louis would be doing more video work than 'shipwrighting'. Perhaps there'll be an update when a meaningful opportunity arises in due course.
How Is Lou?? We are waiting episode 12 of the MOST clever Channel here...😘👋👍
Where ever you are Louis, Merry Christmas and thanks for sharing everything with us. It’s an honor to learn from you.
What's going on Lou dog did we lose you forever? I love watching your videos in a world full of people that half-ass everything you do an amazing job building. Your work is probably the best quality out there anymore. Hope all is well keep up the amazing work!!!
Lou, I hope you understand how much joy and inspiration you are giving to so many people. Best wishes from Sweden.
I could listen to Louis explain things all day 🙂
Aye Aye Master , hope you all are ok , we all miss you, please come back and make us smile again , best wishes Darwin NT Australia.
What can be better… my #1 favourite movie, meets my #1 favourite KZread channel!! I’m following this project like a fanatic Lou 🇬🇧🤓😃
It's been awhile, hope episode 12 is coming soon, can't wait!

Nice display of the skill required to create the backbone of ORCA.
I have taken the liberty of emailing Bristol Shipwrights to enquire about Lou. Will update if I hear anything back.
Wow it’s been two months since your last video. I surely hope that all is well and that you are just focusing on the build of Orca.
Never ceases to amaze me. Great job Lou. You make a great teacher and a great entertainer as well. I am always entertained and schooled when watching you work.Thanks.
Hi louis, we all hope you get through this time and come out healthy, and hopefully continue making the great content everyone adores, once again.

It's difficult not to sound hyperbolic when describing how incredible Lou's videos are.
Just found this gem and binged on skiff v hull build mad skills I'm thinking I like the v skiff hull with a foward pilot and a main lobster rear end lol

Hope all is well with Louis. Probably busy as heck or doing some relaxing summer stuff.
This is amazing. When it's done, I would do anything for a trip out on it! Keep up the good work (from the UK)
Completing the centerline is exciting! It has become clearer and clearer that Lou is not only a master shipwright but he has the essence of true artistry in his work. We are fortunate that Lou is sharing his knowledge and skills with the love and joy of beautiful work. Thank you.
I miss Louis too, hope he is well. So many transferable skills watching you patiant skilset
A MASTER CRAFTSMAN AT WORK!
Dear Lou. I pray you are doing Great these Days I miss seeing you and learning Boat Building from You. Peace Be With You and Take Care. Just a Fan
beautiful work Lou. I really appreciate you sharing both these great build videos and also the modifications you make to the tools you use. The whole series feels like an apprenticeship. Have a great weekend sir.
Haven't seen ya in awhile Lou hope all is well.. Happy Memorial day
She's gonna be a strong, long lived craft with that backbone. Cheers!
Oh, yay! Another Lou video! She's coming along very nicely, Orca is.
I could watch this video over and over for days. You just trip me out, Lou. You're all just like look at what I can do so effortlessly. And then it turns out perfect. Every time. You're the McGiver of boats. To be so skilled. Absolutely amazing!

This is a LOT of boat to build for one man.
With respect.. To have so much energy..in your latter years.. we thank God.. A lifetime of experience..and more.. That 7.5inch Saw blade in a grinder.. Makes me break out in a sweat... I hope lou is ok.. I always feel sad that he never had an apprentice...to pass those skills.. But that seems to be happening all over.. Let's see a robot replace lou... Fingers crossed all is good.. God Bless..
Nicely done.Seems almost impossible to me.History in the making.
God bless lou wherever he is.
Yes I was chomping at the bit, waiting for this episode to air. As usual a full explanation of all Lou's work arounds and technical knowledge. He sure is a Craftsman.
Wow great progress. You are the Rockstar Shipwrights!
I can't wait for the next video.!
Hope all is well. Can't wait to see next video
So glad to see you back Lou ! Have missed you and your knowledge . Wishing you the best !
That’s gonna be a heavy boat !!! … and probably very stable in the water !!!

Always great to watch your traditional hand skills Lou, it`s amazing to see what you can do with something as unforgiving, dare i say it, Brutal, as a chainsaw.

Love the project but it's a long wait between the episodes.
Wow Lou great job, good tips and tricks and useful modifications on the tools making the work easier, faster and somewhat safer.
Hi, I just discovered your brilliant video from seven years ago about steam bending wood and came to this vid just to check that you’re still posting. So glad that you are! Not to blow too much smoke but your vid’s are great! Thanks for your help, from those of us watching here in Central Tilba New South Wales!
thanks Lou
What a project! I am intrigued by the hull design - and as always the craftsmanship that goes into building it!
I hope I live long enough to see Orca completed!
Just incredible to watch you piece it together. Keep it going!
The apprenticeship continues! What a joy to watch a master of his craft.
Ok, we all knew Lou had serious skill saw game, but that chainsaw up to the line? Are you kidding me? Fantastic

Amazing project . Waiting for episode 12 .
Awesome stuff Lou. I have a chuckle everything you mention something you have modified. Keep up the great work mate. 👍
Nice work!
Looks awesome 😊
Brilliant as always.
What a beautiful keel, can't wait for the rest of the boat.
Great job on those pieces, some of those cuts were scary nasty looking but you handled it like the pro you are. ORCA is looking to be huge when you finish her.
Glued to every video. Keep them coming!
Outstanding information in this video. Thank you.
Looking forward to the finished project!
A new episode. This always makes my day. I put everything on hold to watch it.
Awesome episode!!!!
