  • We're back from a short vacation and ready to put the final touches on our V-Bottom Skiff! This week it's time for us to get out our corners knees and our inwhales and caps. The knees are going to be resawn out of a single knee on the shipsaw so the opposing pieces will be book matched and ultimately laminated in the boat. The same lumber that gave us our keel for ORCA has some great 25' quartersawn stretches that are perfect for our inwhales and caps, so we're going to cut those out with the skillsaw. Lastly we're going to put a coat of TotalBoat Topside Primer on the hull over our Epoxy Barrier coat, this will give us good coverage and get us ready for a final coat of Wet Edge Topside Paint.

    Thank you Lou for another episode. Amazing seeing that piece of oak straighten out when cut free of the main board. The covering board has a lot of sweep to it and it is not often you get a perfect piece with the curve so close to what you need. Take care and have a productive week.

    Thanks again Lou, and yet another bind your practical advice gets me out of. I recently bought a new 14" band saw with a 13" resaw capacity, and sure enough, was trying to resaw some 8/4 red oak and with the standard high fence she was fighting me most of the way. As usual, you are able to teach an old dog new tricks.

    Any chance you’re driving anywhere near East Tennessee in the next year or so, I’ll cut you a bunch of those white oak knees that you are welcome to for free, I just cut them up for firewood. Plenty of huge white oak on my land, can’t do patrion donations but you are more than welcome to the wood.

    First of all I think I you're an exceptional craftsman but to say that you've pretty much invented point fence is just absurd. I'm a furniture maker and have had a Jet 14 in and now a Rikon 14 in bandsaw. Both came with fences that had a point fence attachment stock. Yours is really far from a new method.
