THE FLYING HELLFISH – time lapse boat building

admin — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 01:28:44 +0000

Time lapse Video of a Boat Jono and I built. The plans were bought from http://www.boatplans.dk/, plans were VERY easy to follow, and with the extra “boat building” course included, even we (completely clueless beginners) managed to build it! One photo taken every 5mins. There are a few jumpy bits where we forgot to set up the camera.

Custom Built Modular Jib / Crane / Boom Arm

admin — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 09:03:24 +0000

*NEW* Due to the responses I have gotten from this video, I am going to draw up a step-by-step tutorial on how to build your own high quality jib with a low budget. If demand is high enough, we may start building these for purchase as well, for those of you who do not wish to build your own. Check back frequently over the next few months for updates and links.

—————————————-
This is my custom built Jib. It is a work in progress; I still have a lot more features to add, but the base frame that moves it around is far enough along to post a video. I didn’t have enough counterweights at the time of recording so it is a little wobbly because I was trying to muscle it around.

Features:
1.Modular: It can be used in the 8 foot configuration, or you can add on the 6 foot extension.
2.Tool-less: Can be set up by one person in about 5-10 minutes without tools.
3.Lightweight: All aluminum construction combined with the modular pieces, allows it to be very portable.
4.Adjustable counterweight position for fine tuning the balance point.

Future Features:
1.Camera Zoom/Record/Focus/Iris controls from rear of jib, (almost completed)
2.LCD screen/Audio connections (in progress)
2.Motorized Pan/Tilt.
3.Dolly wheels/track system.

I got a lot of inspiration and ideas from this site:

We left off the wheel and the handles this time. The design has a wheel well in the bow with a slot for a wooden wheel exposed to the water and two handles on either side of the transom, extensions of the rub rail.

Hull constructed from Marine Plywood purchased from Boulter Plywood in Somerville Mass
Mahogany used for frames, clamps, and chine purchased at Bottelos in Mashpee as was long gran fur for rub rail.
White pine for seat, skeg and transom purchased locally on the cape as was Oak for the stem and blocks for oar locks. Fasteners and Cuprinol from Jamestown Distributors.
Epoxy and tape from RAKA in Florida
