    EPISODE 79.
    In this episode I start thinking about the plank fastenings for Tally Ho. Using copper rivets is the strongest and most authentic choice, but they are not available to buy in the size I need. Just as I am trying to work out the smartest way to make the rivets, we receive a mysterious box in the mail, from a fan. Amazingly, someone has custom-fabricated a machine for making copper rivets out of round bar!
    We also work on making all the patterns for the hanging knees, which will be cast in Bronze at PT Foundry. Matt and David join the team, and get stuck into grinding bronze, and Rosie gets into her stride laminating the patterns. Backtrack is unamused by the baby chicks.

    My granddaughter (13 yo) was over and saw me watching the video. When she saw Rosie she said, "Girls can do that??? Wow!" So we're going to do a few things in the wood shop today. She had never shown any interest before. Rosie probably doesn't know she was an inspiration for a young girl today.

    Jeff's "Wonder-Rivet-Tool", (you'll wonder how you ever got along without it) is an absolutely brilliant piece of kit. The engineering is so sound and the quality of the end product is off the charts. This could even be used to form Bronze Carriage bolt bodies which would then be threaded as needed. All I can say is I do dearly hope Jeff has filed a patient on this incredible machine, and that the fellows over at Port Townsend come over for a visit to view the end product. Stunning, simply stunning.

    Thanks Leo and crew for keeping us in this most positive vibe through a challenging time in the world .
    Isn't it marvellous how we humans so easily respond to a worthwhile joint task .
    The vibe you ,TallyHo, and friends have created has inspired so much positivity , generosity of spirit , ingenuity , depth of experience , skills etc etc ...revealing these most wonderful aspects of us as humans .
    I could go on ................and I will because I am inspired.
    A boat like this is a true work of art and you are revealing mastery in the process .
    The level of intricacy of the project - as you have taken it on is astounding . It is a massive project . Your work rate/ethic is so effective and equal to your intelligent approach in timelessness - (whilst obviously there are timelines , you show us there is no sense of rushing through and cutting corners . i mean - every aspect of the work has soooo much detail and work effort and we get to see the essence of that . it is mindblowing ! Great film-making !)
    Energetically the project is like a big positive snowball gathering and releasing energies as it flows . The timeliness of the people , skills , materials and tools, manifesting because someone was inspired to throw their shoulder in behind the snowball shows us all that anything is possible when we dream large and include everyone in the dream .
    Amazingly skillful volunteers turn up to offer what they have . So much grunt is needed to accomplish the myriad tasks .
    Marvellous spirit of generosity is here for us to see eh!? Jeff's riveting machine , magnifico : )
    Imagine the world being just like this project . Imagine !
    And as the project flows , timelessly , soon floating in the sea and sailing like a witch ,
    You and friends get to live and sail on this flowing creation with an endless potential global crew list , a generator of positive vibrations resounding through existence .
    Cheers Leo ,
    For reminding us all ; This is how we humans are meant to live - united in joint , fun ,beneficial projects . It's meant to be fun :)

That was certainly a very young looking LEO who rescued Tally Ho. in the summer of 2017. Additionally the progress on Tally is mind boggling. Looking through the hull seeing all those beautifully curved ribs is just incredible. You should seriously consider auctioning off the molds for the hanging knees at an appropriate time. I am SURE it will contribute positively to your balance sheet. KUDOS to you for all the mentoring you engage in. The more you mentor the less you personally work. I guess that is the cost of mentoring. Keep the faith! Tally Ho will be beautiful again.

      @Jack Hole people look and dress a certain way to get a certain reaction. You can pretend you don't, but you'd be lying. Pete dresses in a way that says careless hobo activist kid. Of course we don't know that about him, so nobody ACTS on their initial impressions, but we still think what they want us to think about them.

This video opened with the gal cutting a narrow piece off a board while wearing gloves and the larger toothed bandsaw would have loved to snag her glove and pull her hand into it's path.

      I was thinking the same thing, but to create some additional revenue stream by making/getting a die that could forge coins or?, out of copper or bronze, to be sold to fans of the project with significant margins. The press sure looks robust enough, but we shall see what impact 4,000 rivets has on the machine's longevity.

      @Jim Nickles if you ask me, no, don't do that. You're right with by hammering it in, it wil disappear from the head, but the rivets in the boat are on the boat, so nobody will see it anyway. But the customiesed rivets made to be sold in the shop are easily made and show your appreciation to the whole project!

The only thing better would be an auto-progressive upsetting and cut-off machine. After what Alix and Steve went through to make and upset the ends of their rivets, I can understand Alix's amazement!!!

  • @ightwoman

    I can only echo the existing comments about the rivet forming machine. It's design is imaginative, efficient (I especially love the economy of movement in the press as it cycles through the three finite functions with limited nonfunctional movement) and so professionally built and finished.

    Wow~!! Best episode ever?!? Certainly in the top 10-20?! The astonishing complexity of the hanging knees and all the considerations that go into their construction is mind-boggling. Having to consider the casting process and getting them out of the sand... really impressive to watch. The person responsible for the copper-rivet-making machine deserves The Leonardo-DaVinci/Thomas Edison International Award for Brilliance. I mean... c'mon! Seriously! How cool is that!~!?! One thought I had about the Tally Ho Project is that all of the things which have gone into it from the lofting floor to all of the patterns, the ship saw, the patterns for the floors and knees... all that stuff is of immeasurable worth to anyone else in the future who'd want to tackle building another Strange Talley Ho. Surely all these things will be catalogued and stored and moved on through time to the next batch of geniuses maniacal enough to take on such an overwhelming and beautiful endeavor. Kudos to everyone, especially the copper rivet machine designer! Awesome Awesome Awesome!~!! Thanks for your channel.

    Hi Leo, thank you for all of the great videos. I'm a metal fabricator and all too familiar with angle grinders. I noticed that you're using bonded grinding wheels on the bronze castings. I'd like to suggest you try some flap wheels instead, they are usually faster in material removal, more controllable and leave a nicer finish. They're available in many grits and even different grinding and cooling aids for different metals.
