So satisfying hearing Maya say it's her pet peeve hearing someone correcting the English pronunciation of Aladino (or anyone) when it's not his first language, let alone fifth.
Tell them to bugger off . That's why we love him !!
@@markfoster6110 Exactly!!!!
It always bugs me when someone who is barely literate in his own language thinks someone is dumb because he doesn't speak English like an American. Aladino is obviously brilliant, and fluent in several languages, which most of us in the US can't come close to. I have often wished I could speak Spanish half as well as some of my Central American friends speak what some would call "broken English."
They say tomayto we say .... Don't ask Kiwis about fushing though.
@@dwel2928 I overheard some US Navy NCOs in conversation and seriously their use of English put me to shame, and I've been speaking it since the age of 1, apparently.
Man don't worry about these internet bullies. Half of them can't do the work you do or none the less have the ambition. I enjoy the way you speak, and thank you for trying so hard in explaining your work in a language I could understand. Keep on killing it brother
Half? 99% is more like it.
Clearly some people didn’t come from immigrant homes or live/work with newcomers to understand these challenges.
I wish I could speak as good English as Aladino. English is not my mother language, however, I thoroughly understand everything it's been said every time, even when it comes to technical terms. Beyond this, I also wish I could only possess just a tiny percentage of his determination together with his proven knowledge and ability of wooden sailboats construction. I am fascinated by his methodology and how he's coping with every aspect of this elaborate project.
Maya, your comment about nay-sayers commenting on Aladino's pronunciation of English words was spot on. Thank you.
English is my wife's 4th language, after over 20 years of marriage her English is getting pretty good but she still struggles with some words and i've always said the same thing to people as Maya did.
You both did well, anyone who has not made mistakes have not made anything!
🤣 that's perfect stated
Mistakes can be frustrating but you learned something and you will never forget.
So you not only have to be an incredibly skilled craftsman you have to be a mathematician too? You guys are both so impressive!!
I thought Maya was the one who speaks in a strange manner. Where I am from, everybody speaks like Aladino :)
I very much like that one! Look, she sports a strange American accent!
Aladino, if you are not satisfied with your modified jig, do the following.
Take the jig apart and discard all parts but the two pieces of plywood. Glue and screw the plywood together making one piece. You will have the curve you wanted and the clamps will work clamping perpendicular with that new jig.
Keep up the good work
Maya, how dare anyone from the New World lecture anyone on how to speak English, when they themselves can’t even speak it, let alone pronounce it, they wouldn’t know the Queen’s English if it jumped up and bit them on the butt. Anyway, it’s not an English language lesson, it’s all about a boat refit. You guys are doing a fantastic job as usual. 👍😃
You go girl! Stand up for your man! 5 languages-smart and gorgeous!
I love Aladino's pronunciation. The primary objective of language is communication, and I have never ever not understood what he was communicating! Five languages is impressive! :-) XXX
i was hollering NOOOOOOO!! when i saw the spacers on the top of the pattern jig!!! only because i have been there done that & have the trophy to prove it!!! LOL as long as you learn from the mistake its all good!!! magic carpet is coming along nicely, thanks for sharing with us!!
Alldino I'm from New York city can't even speak English properly but I'm scotch Irish raised in the west indies your English no matter how you say monogamy is perfect
If you weren’t both great communicators, you wouldn’t have such a successful CZcams channel. Keep up the great work.
I like Aladinos explanations in what ever english it is. Its part of his charm his character it's unique to Aladino
The next time you need to make a radius, tie a pencil to braided fishing line, measure the line to the exact radius, and tie it off to a screw. Draw the radius on plywood, or pieces of plywood if it won't fit on one sheet. Use a torpedo to drag along to keep the pencil squared
What’s a torpedo?
All experience usually comes from making a mistake, we have ALL been there. Great work, you will learn much and have a wonderful boat.
That boat will be BETTER than new by the trime you are done ! There are no mistakes - just learning experiences along the way to success.
Aladino is a pretty impressive linguist... and boatbuilder... and problem solver. And Maya is a pretty impressive communicator... and musician... and problem solver. I salute you both.
This shouldn’t be about the mistake but about the correction. It takes a lot of us a lifetime to learn that the most important skill we can develop is to know what we know, but to also know what we don’t know. That is to say, be very aware of the fact that you cannot know everything. Being able to recognize where you went wrong is of course the first step to making corrections. Al realized he was in uncharted waters and so made a test piece to test his jig before cranking out a dozen beams. This means he knew enough to know what he didn’t know. A thinking man is our Aladino. It’s very satisfying to watch you two use your noggin.
In my humble opinion, your fix for the jig is more impressive then the mistake. Your still points ahead in my mind 😉
Your doing just fine for five languages kicking around in your head...
Don't change a bit. Aladino, your personality shines through it all.
Aladino's spoken delivery is delightful and captivating. The world would be a dull place if we all spoke so called "standard" English. Thanks for a lovely video as always!
Been following you from the start. I once had an Allegro 27 that was built but the Vindö company (I am an American living in Sweden since 1977). As a multilingual person, I, too, understand the challenges when not speaking one’s mother tongue. I hope you can get up to Scandinavia sometime to see the provenance of Magic Carpet. Good sailing up here but lots of things to run into. LYCKA TILL,!
keep going guys, I am just enjoying the work, passion and your sincere sharing. Aladino, please don't worry about the pronunciations, I like it the way you are. Thank you for sharing.
I'm not sure of the motivation of some people, jealousy I guess, yes Aladino says some words differently than I do, but I'm not sure that I am saying them correctly anyway. I am in awe of his talent at rebuilding boats that are damaged. It is far more difficult than doing an original build. Aladino could you not have notched you cross braces into the side plates flush with your arc. I love to watch all of your endeavors on both "Magic Carpets" simply amazing.
most people could not do this kind of re-construction at all. Harassment is unseemly from those who may not pronounce that word without ASS reflecting on them.
Yeah I was yelling at the screen! They need to be slotted down in between the arc side templates! Never mind, I made a deck beam jib the other day and I made a completely different mistake so deck beam jigs are a tricky thing. My mistake was not making it long enough and my first beam overhung the ends. Guess what....the arc stops when the beam leaves the jig. So my first beam had a weird shape at the ends.......haha.
Totally awesome work guys!
I come from Devon and now live near Liverpool in England, I can't understand the Scousers and they can't understand me. I do love them though as they are so friendly and call me a "Wooley Back" as I'm a country boy.
Well, I'm glad you asked. Yes, I(royal) completed building a supercomputer(4096 cores, 8 tera bytes of RAM, 2 petabytes of HD, 15.5 miles of cabling) only to have 60% of the hard drives fail. After 3 weeks of troubleshooting, we realised we had installed 2048 hard drives wrong. A mere 400 man hours later, and the issue was resolved.
Aladino's English is excellent. Honestly, he speaks English better than most native English speakers.
In a major rebuild I did I had to do lots of laminating. I decided I needed a jig that could be use for numerous different radius. I made about 20 metal brackets that could then be bolted to a base in whatever curve I wanted using templates to set the brackets out. I was then able clamp the laminations to the brackets. Saved a lot of time each time I needed a different lamination. These brackets or braces were super useful throughout my rebuild and I still have them. Easy mistake to make with the arc but you sorted it out. Andy UK
...you two are the best ...I have botched many large projects...just say a lot of bad words and take it apart .. again .. ......Thank You for bringing us along on you project !!! : ) !!!!
Always a treat, your videos. Proud to be a Patron … at the very small end of the spectrum, but with a big hearted intention!
And yes, to those who spend time writing comments that criticise others, please don’t … it’s unfair on the creativity and talent that goes into awesome productions like these. Plus, it reflects negatively on the gutless poster.
Go, Magic Carpet … love your magic. 💯💙🎉
Maya, I Like how you have your man's back!!!
Having been a machinist I have worked with people that grew up in many countries around the world. We even had a couple of Canadians. One guy, who grew up in Germany learned English after becoming deaf. I have no problem understanding Aladino.
What really impresses me is how, for someone who grew up on the metric system, effortlessly Aladino is working in the fractional inches.
I had thought that the mistake, you mentioned was the routering of the second panel of the jig. The method would also increase the radius. I am surprised that it worked!
Well done, learning a lot.
Hang in there Aladino, we're here for your boatbuilding skills, not your English. Aladino's workmanship, Maya's editing and commentary are top notch no matter how you measure it, metric or Imperial. Keep on keeping on you two! :-)
All respect to your/Aladino's English. It it very good for a not native speaker and your/his vocabulary is outstanding in my opinion! As a Dutchman I've got no problems with the pronunciation. The use of a limited amount of German names for tools or in this case plywood makes it even more impressive, because it shows the amount of less common words you do now in English!
Ma Hog ga nee! LOL! Don't worry about that we like you guys!..cheers!
Your explanations are clear and relatively easy to understand! Larry Misiak Houston Texas
Aladinos english is excellent.. easier on the ear than some native accents... I am from the southern USA and Aladinos accent is clear and crystal much easier than some northern accents..
The man who says he never makes a mistake never made anything.
The enthusiasm, courage, strength and talent that each of you bring to this project/life that you have chosen is fantastic and seems to know no limit. Aladino (sp) has an enviable talent and ability as a woodworker/shipbuilder. His use of the English language (not an easy task) is quite good especially considering how many languages he speaks, to be able to master the different tenses and inflections only shows just how intelligent he is, do not allow a few that like to attack for silly missteps in pronunciations to dampen that fire you both posses. I look forward to seeing the next episode and many more that will follow from you.
And he's a talented teacher too.
To those who are criticizing Aladino's accent, you MORONS this is not an English class!.
Get a LIFE!!!!!.
Oh man, I would have checked out long time ago… 😮. It all looks so complex. At the same time, your workshop and boat looks SO CLEAN AND TIDY! 😮👍🏻
Great workmanship as always.
Sound fine to me....!! Just chill .
Nothing but good on you guys. Five languages,,, wow!!!
Alandino is quite a skillful master boat builder and I'm just simply amazed by his vast knowledge. Although he had a flaw in his first attempt, he's quick in catching his mistakes as well as learning from them. As for his occasional mispronunciations, it really doesn't bother me in the least, as I still get what he's saying. It's quite impressive that he can speak 5+ languages! Although English is my one and only language, I've had my pronunciations corrected many times in my life, so I can understand how you both feel about it. Anyway, I look forward to watching more of your rebuilding your boat. Jenny
Woodworking is an acquired skill, founded on many,, many mistakes. After going through all that these two have, there's another pretty simple way to do arcs.
Once you've figured out what the arc at the deck side of your beam is (and you have), find the radius of the circle. Set up a point that is the center of the circle (length of the radius), and double check the measurement to the top of the deck beam from it. Then, you can string a line and draw (scribe) your arc using the center point as your anchor. When you have done this, shorten the string by the thickness of the beam to draw the bottom edge of the beam, and then scribe that arc.
If you want to use a router (or a jigsaw) to cut the beams, then attach the router (jigsaw) to a support that extends to the center of the circle (called a trammel). Attach it all together, then 'swing' the router (jigsaw) through the arc. .Do the outer arc first, then the inner arc. BE SURE TO ALLOW THE THICKNESS OF THE CUTTING TOOL. If you use the trammel, you can set up a bunch of stops to position the various lengths of stock for the deck beams.
OR something like that.....
Don't you worry about your pronunciation. I would say most people can understand you perfectly well and you don't need subtitles to do so. I speak only one language and it's hard for me. Keep up the good work, I'm impressed.
Mama Bear Maya is adorable.
Years ago we lived in Italia. One evening in Positano we stopped for a gelato. As we walked away from the Gelateria my friend asked “you know you just ordered a fish ice cream?” Let those who criticize figure it out. It would be a true pleasure to work with you guys.
Hahahaha, I made the exact same mistake!!!! I guess you were trying to order peach ice cream 😂
This is why I look forward to Fridays. Thank you! ❤️
Hi guys,your German version is closest, but seriously you can talk how ever you feel fit.Your talents and pictures are worth millions of words in any language.Thanks for your efforts and time.Im a stowaway for life,sorry but your luck(joke)C.C.R.REAL WOOD BOAT 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
"a teeny weeny something of a little bit"
Hahaha I almost died laughing!!🤣
Must be hard not to use the metrics system anymore😅🙈
I loved the plywood explanation, reminded me so much of our days at school ^^
Hope you guys are doing well❤
Broo!
Yeah imperial doesn’t make too much sense after using metric...😅
We are doing very well thank you:) nice to see you commenting on here😸
Hope all is well!🤙🏽
You could have just cut slots in your plywood jig and made the bridge pieces flush with the plywood curve you so painstakingly measured. You may try to get the drawings from Cape George yachts, so you can get the measurements needed to re-build any parts. that camber is in the drawings. They would be invaluable for your future interior and exterior installations. They did support the owner-finished builds over the years. I designed a boat for them in '88-89 which became the CG-34
Outstanding! That sums it all up! Thanks for the huge effort to share such a complex journey ! You both are very special people and great at what your challenging yourself with!
I am super impressed that Aladino, from a metric country, manages to work I those infernal US/Imperial units. Amazing.
I just barely do🤪
Fascinating. The math always wins in the end. @23:00 great tree. I've been around the world and the true language barriers are people who put forth no effort in communicating. I've been underground in mines drawing pictures on the wall communicating with other miners. There is a reason petroglyphs exist.
Aladino is a quality built German lol he's an excellent tradesman.
and 5 languages it is Aladino....That is mind blowing and amazing!
a "Meter" is the REQUIRED length of a pendulum (on planet earth) to track one second in time thru its arc... respect the pendulum!
Comment has probably been made but mounting the perpendicular spacers so that their tops are flush with the jig beams with the perfected radius is the standard way to make the jig. The spacers allow the jig to be wider than the a single beam, allowing clamping of multiple beams at once.
I love this channel and look forward to every episode where you have the courage to do that which I can only observe. Ignore those who critise Aladino's pronunciation. I especially like that you own the errors that are inevitable in such a project. Errors are actually a necessary part of success and it encourages those of us who make mistakes to continue to engage in projects of our own.
Aladino, there is nothing wrong with your English pronunciation. I'm a Kiwi and I speak Kiwi English. I often say that I can't speak English let alone understand it. Ah, but deck beam building and that camber. On Snow Maiden we have one camber throughout the whole main deck and a different camber for the raised bow and stern overdecks. These overdecks give a side profile to that of a lifeboat. They were a right pain to construct.
Maya, Keep up the excellent progress and don't let other negative comments take away your enthusiasm. I have repaired and rebuilt five sailing vessels and made many mistakes. On another topic: have you ever narrated historical programs? As a retired teacher, your voice is distinctive and familiar. Thank you.
Thanks for showing you are human we all do stuff like that would probably not tell the whole world about it but really thanks for sharing
Great content. Helps new sailors work on their projects.
My first idea was "Maya seemingly does not know about the one crucial step she must had edited out or not filmed in the first place .... " - which would have been the correction for the blocks on top of the first drawn curve. ;-) Anyway. Great step, and owning mistakes is quite the rare treat today, so thank You for sharing those, too!
Aladino does a great job with his pronunciation of English. And with his accent his English sounds cute and my GF says romantic.
I speak one language and am not the best with it. I understood which wood you were referring to, so don't worry about it except for your personal goals. The language of mathematics is another I have difficulties with. I am impressed with your skills.
03:47 we can see the italian part of Aladino in his natural habitat, you made me laught out loud! hugs from Italy! 64th of an inch... 0.4 mm!
Thanks again! You've save me from making the "arc mistake" when I lay up a new boom gallows. Great content!
Well done guys...experience is what you get the day after you need it ! Imperial measurements also fry my brain...
The deliberate way Aladino speaks english is very easy to follow and understand. It's one of the reasons I like to listen to him explain what he is doing or thinking. Keep up the good work. Enjoying the journey.
You are both champions, hats off!
It has taken me nearly two months to view your much enjoyed offerings. Bravo, looking forward in great anticipation. Mahagony mahogany who cares.
Not only does Aladino speak 5 languages, he also speaks metric and imperial. This is a skill that few can boast these days. The work he does is impeccable. I keep saying to my wife during this project, “that deck is coming off”. However I think that Aladino has solved the problem without removing the deck by his usual ingenuity. I love you channel and particularly this latest season. Keep up the good work.
Beautiful couple and beautiful, amazing videos.
Hugs 😎❤⛵
Aladino I am impressed at your language and boat building skills. "If you don't like the videos, hit the thumbs down button twice". I get it. That's funny.
You can call that "the learning curve" ;-) And just ignore perfectionist claims. You really give your best and almost everyone can see and feel it. Greetings from Berlin!
I am a glorified bartender.... on the 70 ft OA the hull took 13 drums of resin, and 8 gallons of hardener.... two of us push that button.... the hull shot is over $400k
Thank you for allowing us to be on this journey with you.
Great to hear/see people flipping between metric and imperial measurements. I'm an older white Anglo English speaking person but I've lived in a few non-English speaking counttries, and to be truly honest I've never noticed how you two speak...more power to you both.
its so good i look forward seeing then .your doing a great job just stay with it and i see big thing's from that you are doing keep up great work Len tasker from fife in Scotland
Good at math or not… everyone makes mistakes and I find myself there often despite my best efforts. At least I know I am in good company! Great video guys!
No problems with your pronunciations or your command of the language! We all know what you’re saying.👌🏻
I am just a sentimental old sailor but I love you both for your passion and I don’t really care how you talk.
Aladino, Find someone with a Thermwood 5 axis CNC router in your area and your troubles are over.
The router software will even calculate tool offsets when cutting a radius and compensate for tool wear.
Then again you are a craftsman and an artist with amazing talent you proven you can do this with traditional tools.
Folks like me without your natural talent have to resort to technology as a crutch.
Seriously, contact Thermwood they could possibly be a sponsor and the folks there are wonderful to work with. They are the go to folks for automated wood and composite machining.
Both of you are amazing
Aldino can figure it out.
You are both insanely well spoken. Most of what you say could make it directly into print. I would give the little finger of my left hand if it made me half as well spoken as Aladino is.
Both of you have a lovely way of speaking! I am impressed by both of you and I say keep up the good work! Hugs
"If you dislike the video hit the thumbs down button twice." ROFL. Love it!
At least you do not have the challenges of Sailing Yaba. Hang in there and have fun.
No need for Aladino to apologize for his pronunciation. I understand him just fine.
used to teach trade math which included geometry and trig. in an Ironworkers apprenticeship class, we did similar problems which come up quite often in steel work
Your English is fantastic, people who nitpick others for so small an error probably don't have many friends.
Some folks need to get a life, I appreciate the program, the education and both of you, THANK YOU keep going the way you both are!
Maya: 'and if you dislike the video, press the dislike button twice...' How very clever of you, I found that so funny.
Mahagony, mawhogany,mahogomy, mahogany don't worry about the perfect way to pronounce it just to make a few people happy,as long as you know what material you are working with it doesn't matter. Honestly most of the ones trying to give you greif probably couldn't drive 20nails straight,let alone hand rebuild a sailboat to the level of care and perfection you are taking with this rebuild.
Thank you, merci!
