Today I finished up chiseling the dovetails down and am working on the fitting into the slots. Need to do the interior side guides and center rail on top of the interior dust panels next.

Pictures from this year's first Traditional Timber Framing and Full Scribe Log building course. We were building a Norwegian log cabin taught by Norwegian carpenter Marius Holje. As well students built a massive French style timber frame structure from heavy larch timbers using French and Japanese scribe rule centre line layout system. Log building was build using only axes and chisels. No saws were used to cut the joints.

The latest addition to my collection of fine Lie-Nielsen handtools. This chisel is suited to cleaning out dovetail joints.

I splurged on the Veritas plow plane.

The School begins classes once each year, early in October. Students are divided into sections of 12 students each, and get two hours of classroom instruction and six hours of shop instruction per day, Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm.

 

Basic Boatbuilding is the focus of the first semester, which runs from early October to late December.

 

The instructors assume that most, if not all, students have no woodworking skills and proceed from that assumption. The skills taught in the first semester are those essential to boatbuilding, and the course, for that reason, is very "hands-on".

 

Students learn to sharpen and use all their tools, and participate in a wide range of individual skill-building exercises, from learning to make the joints commonly used in boatbuilding to a series of tools. Basic lathe work is taught. Students learn to draft and make a half-model. Then, working in pairs, they learn to loft a boat full-size on the floor. Finally, working, together as a team, the semester culminates in December as students work together to build a flat-bottomed skiff.

 

The Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding is located in Port Hadlock WA and is a private, accredited non-profit vocational school.

Our mission is to teach and preserve the fine art of wooden boatbuilding and traditional maritime crafts. We build both commissioned and speculative boats for sale while teaching students boatbuilding the skills they need to work in the marine trades.

My Shaker Style Weather Station, completed and hung on the wall of my workshop, finished with 5 layers of de-waxed shellac, then a layer of clear wax.

Briwax Danish Oil is a blend of oils and resins, which seals, feeds, and finishes a wide variety of woods, without leaving a surface film that can be chipped or scratched.

 

Directions: To achieve a good finish, ensure that wood is dry and free from contaminants such as grease and wax. Lightly sand with a good quality sandpaper. Apply liberally with a clean, dry rag or brush. On new wood, two or three coats will be necessary. Allow four to eight hours drying time depending on temperature and conditions. Danish Oil can be overcoated with Briwax for a softer sheen. Clean brushes with mineral spirits. 16 oz.

These 2 tire irons were standard issue tools sold with every Ford Model A automobile ever manufactured. Both irons are 10" long and were made to be used together to remove and install the slender Model A balloon tires.

 

The tire spoon with the square cutout on the end for adjusting the braking system is clearly marked "FORD A." The flat iron is unmarked for some reason. The Marked iron was manufactured for The Ford Motor Company by The K. R. Wilson Company. These two have been together for a very long time stored in a crumbling to bits (and really dirty) cotton bag, which I've passed along to the compost pile.

 

If you're lucky enough to own a Ford Model A and are looking for the basic tools, these two are a good start.

Dovetailed tool chests, which boatbuilders would know as "shoulder boxes", are one of the many projects built in the Basic Boatbuilding class. We've built these boxes in every one of our 32 classes over the years since our founding in 1981. This one needs its finish coat and it will be done.

 

Shoulder boxes were used to make it easier to carry the tools needed for the day's work to the job site. Students customize these boxes in all sorts of different ways.

A craftsman demonstrates planing a workbench leg. Incidentally, craftsmen back then would have driven Steve Jobs into a fit of rage. They only cared about the sides people would SEE, if it was hidden from view, they just left the tool marks there as it was too much of a bother to waste time on cleaning them up.

Shoulder boxes, or tool chests, like these are made during the first semester at the School. The handbox sitting on the fllor in front of the shoulder box is designed to fit in the top section. Each student builds and personalizes their own box.
