Those are where the boat is now. We have scraped all extra fill otc the plank seams and begun to attach more stuff...
Next an other project that my classmates are doing. They started a month earlier.

Nice ! Have you named it yet or do we have to have a contest ?
'The Finland Ferry" ? lol :)
NCOha's arc ?
Even a Mora can only go so far in compensating for the lack of skill of the user.:innocent:Quote:

That really is an outstanding job. You should be very proud of that.
Maybe you could name it NOTAMORA. Just thinkin, with time on my hands. I for one like my Mora.
The mora is strictly for scraping glue. I have a puukko too for any knife work.
I can't name the boat as it wont come for me. Her project name is Ursula...
Further update on Ursula.

Today we prepared and made two of the three stiff ribs. The third one will be my exam to judge my level of skill with basic wood working. The ribs are formed of three 10mm thick, 40mm wide and from 170mm to 185mm long pieces of knot free pine strips.

Looking very good. I'd give you an A on the project so far.
Thank you Rick.
We actually use rating from one to three, three being the best. I would give the design of the boat a one, and the build a two... But it's a good learning process!
A little update:
My Exam, the third stiff rid has suffered a little setback for reasons not under my control. It was going alright, I did everything according to safety regulations and so on to the point of perfection. I managed to pick good quality wood for the project, the laminating process didn't have any issues and finishing the piece went well also. Then started the fitting. The piece was just the right size and all I needed to do was to carve spaces for two slap joints and the gunwale on the rib to make it perfect. As soon as I started making the first slap joint embedding slot on the rib the first laminated layer snapped loose like a leaf spring. I examined the glue seam and it turned out it hadn't set properly. I begun to wonder why. I was certain that the hardener ratio was correct and I had had it on suitable clench. Soon it hit me, it was colder than usual INSIDE the workshop. Only +12C(53.6F) when normal temp is around 18C(64.4F). It was too cold for the glue to set!!! The heating had partially broken down due to the -40C(-40F) night temps on few consecutive nights and -30C(-22F) days... It would appear that my exam is slightly delayed due to weather issues. The temp should rise to around -20C(-4F) this week, so hopefully I can get the project moving soon.
I wish we had projects like that in school, but I do still have my book ends and gun rack.
I am impressed in the build and effort,..........Nice Job.
Hunter63, you would have had if you had studied boat building... :)
Well there was a project we (3 of us) did involving a Class B Hydroplane, w/ 9.5 HP Merc out-board.
Built with 1/4 plywood and fiberglass.
Did float, went like h@11 on a straight-a -way, but was a real treat to TRY to turn, usually involving a multi flip, spin and a dunking.
Somewhere there was a basic flaw in the design, guys in the following classes also tried to make it work?????
Good thing we had a kill switch on the wheel so the motor wouldn't get completely trashed every time we dunked it. Kinda got to the point, where we waold just look at each other and say, "Hey, why don't YOU try it?"
Got to tell ya, that was about the fastest I ever felt I was moving,(about 50 mph) hitting those little waves with just a 1/4 plywood between your knees and the water was a trip.
I think a project like yours would have been more satisfying.
My guess is that you didn't have any part of the h-copter in the water... effectively making turning a b1tch. It's like having a 100hp engine on an old U-pattern row boat. The thing will glide/fly and not turn stably.
I still have my lamp and dust pan. I have no idea where my DC motor ended up. Probably part of a Toyota.
Looking forward to more pics on Ursula.
Its a milestone for you. Congratulations.
Another update, after a short course of fiberglass repairs and laminating I got back to Ursula, and now we have both gunwales finished and we have begun to work with the interior.

Looking Good ! :)
That is one awesome project. Looks great
woodsman86, not a project, it's school work...
Looking good, did the vikings have power sanders? (LOL)
no; just a lot of time on their hands. picture it: it's 1000AD, it's cold, rainy and you're looking for a project. you're almost out of mead and your choices are 1.) work on your boat, 2.) hang out with sheep.
i'd work on the boat :D
That's pretty cool.Do you have a date to set sail?
Ursula reminds me very much of a Cornish Pilot Gig in design, though she seems to be wider at the waist. Looks really good, can't wait to see her out on the water.
I really enjoy this thread. You're doing a great job.
It looks like another boat in progress on the other side of the bench. It looks like a different design. What is it?
Just a school project. Whatever you call it, it looks fantastic.Quote:

Rick, there is total of five boats under construction or repair in that space, the one you asked of is a project that one of our student's is building for himself. It is an old western Finland fishing boat design, originally a sail boat but later they usually had a middle engine.
The launch date of Ursula is "before midsummer"(of undisclosed year). I doubt I'll get a chance to get a picture of her in the water let alone row her, she was ordered by one of the teachers from the metal department(?).
I think you and the others should at least do a Sea Trial to make sure she is seaworthy and of sound build. (There has to be a rule somewhere!)
Might, with luck get to do sea trials... Hopefully... It's a well known design though and the teachers have kept an eye on us building it.
We have the interior works now mostly done, so more pictures coming your way!
These two were taken earlier while there still was some interior work to be done.

We certainly are getting there.
You are doing a great job on it. It looks like copper fasteners are being used throughout the boat. Is that correct? While copper won't rust it will corrode. Is that a concern with salt water? I assume that's pretty traditional as well?
Yeah, the copper rivets are used throughout the boat, though with the benches and other similar structures where it is very difficult to rivet anything we use stainless steel screws. The salt water is not really an issue since the boat is made for lake use. Also the tar, or what ever the teacher say we paint it with will protect the rivets. From what I have seen from the repair projects we have is that the rivets are the last thing to fail. The Sikaflex-291 boat sealant we use as a caulking material rots away before the rivets do, and the 291 does last a long time.
