If you'd like to try building your own land yacht, here are the plans I used: www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Land-Yacht-Sailing/Construction/Lake-Lefroy-Mini-Plans--

This man is just incredible - plays with electronic stuff - plays with mechanical stuff - plays with coding sort of He can just do whatever he wants. I have been waiting with eyes wide open for your video.Damn this is just incredible. Keep up the great work sir. #Respect

Your friend is the most enthusiastic guy ever lol

Aaaaand that's why I like your channel. Not one video so far has been the same. (Except for the visits to the Chinese parts markets..)

I really like how this Channel is coming out. I am subscribed since the first iPhone Video and it just gets better

Please keep including the "I just fucked up" parts, they are so important to show how the journey was fraught with real hardship. They reassure people who are anxious about trying something new, convinced they'll be terrible, and says that even the most successful of us still fuck up

Hoping for a day when I get notified saying that you built your own *AIRPLANE*

YOUR SMILE IS CONTAGIOUS

You're the best KZfaqr worldwide! Always creative and with a ton of work.

if he say "i have to be careful" it's definitely going to screwed up.😂😂😂😂😂😂

What I loved most about these videos isn't the fact that he creates something perfect. It's the process of making mistakes, attempting to fix them, and learning what he could of done better next time that really captivates me. Great job on the build!

Awesome! That’s been my dream for about 10 years but don’t have the skills you do. I’m 66 now and don’t see it happening. The desire is still there. Thanks for that.

Just my amateur view... but having a sense of adventure I feel is a virtue, or what I regard as an element to attaining a kind of enlightenment. You are on that path! You're also an inventive person with many impressive skills where you envision something and with various pieces you create and construct what you conceive of or dream of, and that's a kind of ingenious leap. You also did not want to sail alone, but you also have a kind of empathy too where you share a unique and remarkable experience with someone who would have never experienced that before, a grand magnanimous gesture. Thank you for sharing so many gifts with the world. Life is a journey and you're one on the path less taken, and a great one!

You're the most *AMAZING* person, because of your individuality.

Wow, Blake was a lot of fun.

I'm glad that you don't just show the best parts of the builds, too many people do that. I love that you show your mistakes, explain what happened, and what you're going to do to try to fix it. I find those parts the most interesting.

Love this channel ! No annoying ads, 10:01 videos, drama, etc

I love your content and im always looking forward to the next video the only thing i wanted to say please dont ever rush over your vids take your time and try to give us the best content u can (although thats just what you are doing)

Definitely my favourite channel on youtube

I respect people who are capable like this so much. This guy seems like he can make/build anything.

I do not understand English very much but use the translation and enjoy much in what it offers thanks

Scotty: "My parents were rock climbers" This explains so much.

this channel is special. I don't want it to end

Little tip for next time dude.. if you can't mill out the pin to fit the bush, drill the bush to fit the pin.. just reem out the bush with some emmory paper when your done drilling and it'll be nice and smooth..

This man put so much time and effort for a single video. So thats why i like his videos and subscribed him. Keep up the good work. A huge thumbs up for all your effort

You have 9 videos and half a million subscribers! This is pretty impressive, I think it shows how entertaining your videos are. Thanks 😀

Why didn't you just mill out inside of the bushing?

Oh do I love this channel, no regular uploads but when this guy uploads it is some top-notch quality content, love it!

Gosh I love these videos so much! I could just sit here and watch them all day long.

i think i'm addicted to these videos, might be the positive vibes

Another awesome video Scotty thanks

As a welder myself one tip I have for ya is to tack weld during fit up first. That way when you gotta cut off the steering part 3 times its a lot easier to cut a couple tacks! Nice work regardless!

Every single one of your videos is like a small adventure

What an *awesome* shop you have

Im glad that you started making youtube video's.. one of my fav channels! :-)

fantastic stuff Scotty, tks for sharing the adventure and process

Love the "land yacht will be gone..." note. I used to use those a lot. Haha

Top tip for future fabrications, you can make sure everything is aligned when tacking it using a spirit level on the different faces and surfaces. also tack as much of it up first without full welds then if something needs adjusting it makes life so much easier.

It's insane watching Scotty just communicate with people and have them one hundred percent understand him.

I love how despite running into challenges in your various projects, you persevere. Keep up the good work!

Your newer stuff is still really cool and fun ti watch!

Dude. 100% of your videos are golden. This is definitely one of my favorite KZfaq channels.

You gotta love Scotty.

All your videos are so interesting and entertaining to watch. Usually i skip some parts of videos longer than 5 min but i watched the whole 22 min. I could watch hours of your videos! so refreshing. Quality content right there.

another great video! Thank you for taking the time (again) to take us with you on an adventure. I enjoy the whole process you capture in your videos, the desire, the failures, the epiphanies, and compromises. very relatable to any project I have done. Again, thank you sir, keep up the great work!

The Lake Lefroy Mini! I'm in the process of building one too and it's been handy flicking through this vid for little details. For the steering I went with the 90 degree cut on the spine then weld brackets on for the steering shaft socket since I figured it'd be easier than cutting the angle directly into the spine... still got it crooked though.

You have like 6 videos, but holy crap your production quality is amazing.

I have so many thoughts on this video! -first, "this is not the right tool" was easily the best line in the video! -mad skills in the shop -mad skills in telling a story that brings you along for a journey! -I watched your Anarchist vid right before, so it was awesome to watch you working inside Noisebridge -even though it's 20+ minutes long, the pacing felt even better than previous ones -if you ever find yourself up in Ontario, Canada, look me up, I have a couch you're welcome to crash on xD

I use to live in Lancaster and have been out to El Mirage a half dozen times - much more fun and much faster than sailing a boat. I had a correctly calibrated digital speedo and had my cart going 45 once, often 42 You have to keep in mind you face is literally 2 feet off the ground so you really get the sensation of speed. I'd have an ice chest with a couple of burgers and beer and go ping ponging across the lake all day stop to pee and stretch my legs then open another beer and Get Back At It I've put 70 miles on in a day thanks for this video, I'm going to put together another cart

As always, wonderful demonstration of your creativity, gutsiness, enthusiasm, and collected construction skills! Also, a superb follow-up to the NoiseBridge video. So many terrific tools at your finger tips! You go, Scotty!

I love the video thanks, I've got a lefroy mini yacht I built in the yard still. I think I will get it going this summer. So much fun on the beach. Thanks for the inspiration

Always a pleasure seeing your self-made things come to life

Dude i love your videos! Keep it up!!

This man is all rounder

Wow your editing has improved so much!!! This video was so creative! I love the incorporations of slow mos and jump cuts! Great work Scotty!

this guy is living my dream!

One of the best channels on KZfaq...Amazing...

One of the most underrated KZfaq channels , great video keep up the amazing content

Man always brings smile on my face when i see you uploaded :D

Simply inspiring.

You’re like the coolest guy I’ve never met! I love the variety of the stuff you post, ever since the first building of the iPhone I’ve been hooked, keep up the work, I envy your lifestyle.

interesting hack space ~~ it have almost every possible needed tools dang ~~~ wish my town have such beautiful place.

Absolutely love this channel! Videos are all different, all very interesting. This is what KZfaq is really for!

Your content is some of the best content I have ever seen on youtube. You are a great problem solver and story teller. Good luck!

Excellent content as always. Love your videos !

Congratulations on your success!

that's awesome, when I was a younger me and my dad made one of these for the beaches. loads of fun!

This guy deserves much more subs

Your projects are always interesting

You are doing only quality stuff! :-) youtube needs more channels like yours

What a great video about building it from scratch! Even though its following a proven plan, its quite the adventure to see how it all came to be, keep up the great videos!

That is so rad to see. I used to ride ATVs in that lakebed with my dad in the 90s. Shorter drive for me though since I’m in SoCal. Tons of car commercials and music videos were filmed there.

Great video yet again man looks fun!

So epic, was not expecting such a great story. Keep it up! ok

At 8:25 the bushings don't fit: Why not get bigger bushings vs redoing the entire rig or anything else? Just thinking it is easier to lower the water than to raise the bridge :-) Very cool project but I would rather fall into the water at 5 or 10 knots than onto the dirt at 45 MPH... You never sleep but hey, which one was faster? Who won?

Its just so strange to see Scotty drive a car.....but land yacht? Absolutely normal. Nothing out of place, seeing him sail a land yacht. Seeing him do that puts another item on my bucket list.

You're really just an inspiration for me to go and do things. I've always wanted to build things that I see, and from the build-your-own-iphone video to this, you just plan it and make things happen. Your content is really cool, and presented really well, man. I'm a loyal subscribbler.

Awesome, very detailed and educational vedio, keep up the great work 👍

Looks like fantastic fun!!! Well done building your land yacht!!!

Awesome as always!

I love these videos, you are so talented. It's like watching artwork being made.

you always deliver, keep it up

Hey, why did you struggle with thinking about putting the steering rod back into the lathe instead of just lathing the bushing?

maybe fit a small battery and a solar panel on it so when the wind dies out you have a reserve of movement. maybe even fit a generator on a tire to power some wicked cool led lights

Great video scotty keep it up man!!!

Good result but I was curious why you used steel rather than aluminum? Ease of welding perhaps (mig vs tig)? And why you chose a single sided fork for the front axle? Seems like a standard 2 pronged folk would have been way easier? I'm asking because I don't know. IF your answers are "because that's how I chose to do it," that's fine too. Just wondering.

Awesome awesome video. Planning, execution were fantastic! You reaped the rewards with an excellent adventure

Hi Scotty, thank you for another inspiration how to video. Coincidently, I know El Mirage, as I filmed there a l-o-o-o-o-n-g time ago. Amazing place. The wind was as hit and miss on my visit too. And we really needed zero : ) Looking forward to what's next for you.

“There’s no speed limits out here.” *drives a Prius*

i would love to do this, loved sailing when i was younger , but never tried this!

Freaking love this channel. It's half learning amazing things and half seeing amazing places. Keep up the good work!

Another masterpiece... I just love your videos man, great job

Oh man that's a hell lot of work!! Thumbs up excellent bro.

Great job dude - inspired

That was so cool! Can't wait for the next video!

This man is a legend!! Pure love bro

officially my favourite channel

It would be cool to see if you could integrate a bicycle mechanism into the front; it would work as a great failsafe if the wind dies down, or to help you accelerate. Thanks for another great video!

Is there like a common fund for tooling and such at Noisebridge?

This is awesome man!
