Rebuilding a historic sailing yacht – Assembling Frames with Treenails. Support; Become a Patron; <br /><br />----- <br /><br />This episode, I work with some volunteers to cut out more futtocks, and assemble the first pair of Frames using Southern Live Oak - to replace the old English Oak frames that Tally Ho was built with. To fasten the futtocks we use Black Locust Treenails (Trunnels/Trennels), which are traditional wedged pegs, used for centuries in ship-building and timber-framing.<br />We also get some more of the copper fastenings removed, build some adjustable trestles, and establish the centerline of the boat. Finally, Cecca and I take an overdue little holiday to the furthest reaches of the Olympic Peninsula.<br /><br /><br /><br />Thanks for watching (and clicking the LIKE button!) <br /><br />Find out about all my other adventures on my website; <br /><br />To read more about what I'm doing, or become a Patron, go to <br /><br />To donate, or see all the other ways you can support the project, go to <br /><br />For sneaky previews of what’s going on in between Episodes, follow my <br />FACEBOOK and <br />INSTAGRAM . <br /><br /><br />MANY THANKS! <br /><br />--- <br /><br />Music; <br /><br />Wayne Jones - Tango de la Noche<br />Quincas Moreira - Amor Chiquito<br />Audionautix - Boxcar Rag<br />Topher Mohr and Alex Elena - The Creek<br />Audionautix -Tennessee Hayride<br />Dan Lebowitz - Blue Creek Trail<br /><br /><br />28.
