Certainly a man who have a great knowledge about what he is doing and what he is talking about.

Super formidlet. Og super fedt i laver de her projekter.

These techniques and the boats changed history far more than people imagine

Strongly recommend visiting the museum in Roskilde, once we can travel again. They have active workshops, and boats that can go sailing on Roskilde Fjord. Plus the original 1000 year old ships on display.

A very clear explanation of he's doing. Particularly liked how the treenails are orientated to take account of grain expansion. Excellent video.

Amazing and obviously with the way you did it, very strong!!! great job

This is better than watching modern day crap you see in movies. For me, watching this has been a Zen-like experience. There are beautiful things to be appreciated in this sad world

Couldn't understand a word. Didn't read the text. But understood it completely. Fabulous old skills and a pleasure to watch a master boat builder. And the way the world is going these boat are set to make a come back.

I was at the museum and missed the demonstrations but am going again. It's well worth the airfare just to feel the history of the place and displays.

So grateful to the crafts people and those who recorded this.

That is awesome. The time and skill involved is enormous. I think they used these through them 1700s on sailing ships

This is awesome. I hope the tradition remains alive for many more centuries

My dream is to build up my own wooden boat. Thanks many for this lesson. 👑👑👑❤️🇸🇰🗽🕊

Thank you for showing us such craftsmanship

Awesome craftsmanship. I don’t think I blinked watching the process, it was so captivating. Great work.

This is wonderful to watch and learn from. Never know when such skills might once again come in handy.

I've watched this video over and over. Those Norse dudes had the gift!

And they did it, without any drawings. Only with knowledge from older generations.

Thanks for the demonstration and the subtitles.

Clinker built with wooden treenails? Wow! Pretty awesome. Each treenail takes a lot of careful crafting!

Wooden treenails were typically used to fasten the support-beams. The planks are riveted with iron. A great video to watch on that is the construction of the Draken Harald Hårfagre - a full size dragon-longship.

Obviously took the ancient peoples much trial and error to perfect these techniques. Do it again Oluf, this boat leaks!!!!

I loved this video. It taught a lot!

Thank you so much! Just an excellent video. I envy your knowledge and skill working with tools.

Fantastiskt fin information, mycket intressant video.Tack!

А где конкретно ты обитаешь?

Sånn er den rette måten å bygge trebåt og trehus. I et museum går det fint, men prisen på en sånn båt eller trehus i dag ville blitt enorm. Beste hilsner fra Norge.

Parabéns pela preservação cultural dos modos de vida de seus antepassados. Devemos sempre olhar para frente, porém sem esquecer o que nossa história tem nos ensinar para evitar erros do passado e também melhorar as coisas para o futuro. Vocês são exemplo para o mundo!

Thanks for the video! We owe you a beer!

I thought the same thing. Plus he has very strong hands. I do woodcarving by hand too and his movements were swift, and stron. He only made one cut wot shave the long, thick pieces off which shows his hand strength.

Cool video

Wow what a knowledge have i get

Very good job done. How many wooden nails did you use?

wait. why iron nails are only used on strake planks (in this Clinker built technique) and not to fasten a plank to keel ? what is a bad thing fastening planks to keel or other frameworks with iron nail? and what is a good thing using wooden nails in this job?

Wonderful documentary. Would they have had linseed oil originally? Thank you and all the best.

What he has demonstarted is probably just the outline of process, being wood I bet the weather had a lot to do with setting the nails as well...

Super !

did they use the same techniques to build buildings? those boats must have been super flammable with the linseed oil =P

thank yew

chingonazooo!!!!!😊😊😊😊

That craftmanship is on par with computerizing.

I am going to make a boat this summer and have thought about the use of wooden nails. What is its advantages? In the example in the video I understand that the nails are of course larger diameter than most metal nails therefor the forces are spread more evenly from the planks to the ribs. Are there any other advantages that I fail to see?

They don't rust, and they don't weaken the wood over time ("iron sickness"). Last as long as the planking. When they lifted the Wasa ship in Stockholm, it had been under water from some time in the 1600's. All the nails had rusted away, but the hull was kept together by wooden pegs. So well that she could float on her own.

Waw!

They should tell you that when they say tar that it is Stockholm tar, pine tar, not mineral tar.

These guys should get contracts to build boats for movies. The damn greyjoys would have been a little more likable if they were sailing around in one of these.

How long will nails last before requiring replacement?

Хватит на весь срок службы лодки. Деревянные гвозди могут выпасть, если лодка долго не будет в воде. Если они усохнут. И то, маловероятно, чтобы это произошло )

Is there any particular reason that the nails are hung on twine? I didn't see the knot used. Can you demonstrate?

They were hung to dry after being cut when the wood was green.

Sadly the museum have become a dang turist trap. I used to work there some twenty years ago or so. And I went back to have a look at the changes. But stod at the entrance looking at the prices for admission and all I could say was "Nope not paying 150Dkk (22USD) to see a place I used to work at"

Vakwerk.

If it takes this long to do one nail it must have taken fifty years to build that boat.

Not quite. Team effort. A fjord boat was launched here a couple of years ago - more or less exact same techniques. 5 year build time. Larger ones of course more demanding in every way, for crew as well as timber sizes etc.

Well, you do have drying time for the nails and wedges before they can be used, but there is plenty to do before they are needed. Just have to make them ahead of time with enough drying time before they're needed. Hand shaped timbers & planks take a bit of time themselves. Probably 3-5 years depending on the number of craftsmen building the boat and the size of it. Maybe quite a bit less time with a good size building crew with loads of experience.

if your only job is making the wooden nails, you'd make a few hundred in a day no bother, no disruptions with phones or internet that time or a set wages by the trade unions.not a bad way to spend a day !

Can you imagine how much work was required to make iron nails, if you have to make the iron first?

DENMARK: PLEASE STOP IMPERSONATING BEING VIKINGS (THE VIKINGS CAME FROM NORWAY): So you believe that the inhabitants in a flat country with super easy travel within the country (denmark) on the outskirts of the mainland of Europe was thinking to themselves: "should we conquer the rest of europe THE EASY WAY by horse / by foot - or should we invent viking ships and conquer the rest of the world THE DIFFICULT WAY by boat?" WHAT WAS THE NEED for viking ships in denmark??? Contrast this to the mountains, fjords and forests in Norway that made travel by foot / horse / whatever IMPOSSIBLE back then (and even TODAY!). The invention of Viking boats and later Viking ships was the continuation and refinement of a ship-builder tradition that grew out of a NEED TO TRAVEL WITHIN NORWAY and in harsh weather conditions. You are trying to tell the world that the danes just built some boats because they wanted to build them and made perfect sea capable wessels just as a hobby since there obviously was NO NEED WHAT SO EVER to have ships to travel inside denmark? The Norwegian Vikings conquered denmark and used it as a resting place en route to the world. What you've found in denmark is just remains from the REAL NORWEGIAN VIKINGS.

vikings used axes for this job he cheated.
