10 foot pine strip canoe build
I built a 10ft pine strip canoe with boards I had laying around! I'm not a boat builder nor would I claim to be! it just seemed like it would be fun to try!

    Hola. Gracias por enseñar tu trabajo. . ? Que madera usas ?

    I think you show that anyone can do this with basic tools and you try lots of different skills to finish it. I think maybe some more time on fairing the strips before epoxying would have paid dividends but this construction method looks like fun. Did you use a plan or just wing it?

  • @ChristopherBrown-xg6un

    Thanks for sharing. I'm curious how its holding up with just the epoxy coating over the wood. I built a similar canoe but used fiberglass cloth with the epoxy resin.

    Your boat is extremely impressive but I think I would’ve taken more time to carve the Leaf design instead of using adrenal tool. I know you did that to save time, but I would have spent more time carving it in a relief form instead of just a lines other than that man that is fabulous, you have inspired me

    Enjoyed it and the built-by-eye method. In the future, when you build a proper 17 ft canoe, speed the process way up by using strips twice as wide except those that cross the tight curve of the bilge. Also a carbide scraper sharpened occasionally by a diamond hone will remove those glue blobs real quick. Small temporary screws will hold those bottom ribs tight till the glue sets. Finally, a single layer of 6 oz fiberglass cloth in epoxy over the exterior will toughen the entire hull right up without adding hardly any weight.

    Outstanding woodwook ! 10 feet and narrow is very small, Polly risen and glass mat would strengthen the structure, and solve many problems. I wish I knew the purpose of the craft , this could be used for display in a restaurant, suspended from the ceiling.

    • @paulbriggs3072
      @paulbriggs3072 Před 4 měsíci

      White pine was used to build all kinds of small craft in early America from the 1600's onward including Grand Banks dories which were planked with pine traditionally. Ship's decks as well were edge nailed white pine. Spruce was widely used in the Canadian Maritimes for small craft and larger lobster boats a well.

    I really like the staple technique for holding planks together. I have watched a lot of canoe build videos and have never seen that. Very practical and less complicated way of holding those planks together while the glue dries and definitely allows for faster work.

    Awesome! true to my heart of get to good enough and get paddling. Jeff and Jimmy Snyder used to carve squirt kayak plugs with a chainsaw (cutting through nails and all). So glad there are the practical folk, as well as the neurotic perfectionists, all a matter of balance. Also adore the wood burned leaf motif, gotta do what speaks to ya!

    So, I really enjoyed that video. I kept thinking to myself at each point “he’s not gonna do that is he”? And you did… and yet it turned out very symmetrical and fully functional. A manufactured object only has to do one thing “meet the customer’s expectations” and it does exactly that. It’s true that there are plenty of things that would have made it better. But the way you did it makes it very approachable for anyone with just a few tools an only a small amount of time. You’ve got plenty of life left if you ever want to spend thousands of hours building a “perfect” canoe.

    How did it hold up? What was the total weight when finished? How many sq ft of material did you use? Did you make the templates for the jig yourself? How comfortable was that seat? Well done!

    • @zekesomero
      @zekesomero Před rokem

      Thanks! So far it's still holding up! I'd guess around 50lbs. I don't know the sqft, but i only used 2 1x12 pine boards. And I rate the seat 8/10 the longest time spent in the seat was 6 hours at one time, others than stiff legs it was comfy

    • @TheRedBeard216
      @TheRedBeard216 Před rokem

      @black birch creations nice, I honestly want to make one. It looks really nice! And that's not too bad at all for the weight! Our water levels are low in nova scotia. Usually the puddles are big and deep and we have flooding rivers after winter. This year I have seen rocks I've never seen before. Barely any puddles. Was planning on doing the Shubenacadie Canal this spring but turns out I might not have a chance due to much of the water being dried up along the routes. Good time to make one for next year!
