😁😁😁

Hahaha

True story :D

😂

It’s great watching these builds that take years on YT. No where else does this happen. I watched that “Project Binky” build, that took YEARS!!! Same with the Tally Ho. It’s great.

Ditto, the title threw me off, I was expecting a tallo ho video but then it was in a machine shop.

I watch all three channels as well and was thrilled to see you all collaborating to get the Tally Ho restored. One suggestion, you may want to find someone with SolidWorks and a large 3D printer to design the pattern. Use some 21st Century technology on a century old boat/ship!!

@@eagle2019 I believe Keith uses Fusion 360.

@@artkaufman595 That would work as well! With a shape as complex it's a perfect application of the technology

I was curious to see what the third channel is. Not disappointed.

Shipping the assembled capstan out, without running the motor is looking for trouble.

"Keith wuz here" on the inside.

But is it a Tally Ho anymore if all the parts have been replaced with new ones?

@@koitk Thesus’ capstan.

@@koitk This is my grandfather's axe, it has had seven new handles and three new heads, but it is my grandfather's axe. Not a new question, nearly 2000 years old if not more. The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned from Crete had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus, for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their places, insomuch that this ship became a standing example among the philosophers, for the logical question of things that grow; one side holding that the ship remained the same, and the other contending that it was not the same. - Plutarch, Life of Theseus 23.1

​@koitk A wooden boat is like anything else built of wood. Even if it has to be rebuilt down to the last plank, as long as it is constructed true to the original with full reverence and adoration of the original, it is the same vessel, just given a second lifetime. Keep in mind that when tally ho was originally built, nobody expected her to be seaworthy in even 50 years let alone that some mad lad would, in 2023, have her mostly rebuilt after buying her rotten, scrap yard bound husk for a dollar years earlier.

Thanks for doing the work, I was wondering myself. I can't imagine there being too many people out there with experience on a 110 year old tool.

This is not the first project for Leo - 3 years ago, Keith repaired a bolt threading machine for Tally Ho! restoration - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNifbJmct5qWnIE.html

Same here 😂

Keith that was definitely a very tough job. Nice to have a good friend like Clark to come for a visit and end up giving you some help. Most definitely a two man job. Some people may not realize when you do not have a manual, it can be a challenge to try and figure out how it went together. Thanks for sharing. Great job Keith and Clark. Take care, Ed.

who is the 3rd? I know Leo's channel.

@@fex77k The foundry channel, maybe?

Yep, Windy Hill Foundry

It's like the avengers!

Looks like this channel skyrocketed, Iam also new. Love this channel so far

More famous then the titanic? Jokes aside its amazing the traction this project has

Idiot

NO WAY !!NESCESSARY CASUALITY B/S!! been reading all these these comments and stopped here coz my bloods boiling ...Mate when I was a apprentice I would have got my arse kicked up between my shoulder blades for busting that cover.

@@chrisquinlan3012 It was already broken.

@@chrisquinlan3012 I guess its a shame they didn't ask you to do it. cant imagine if one of the best machine restorers in the US along with a professional company cant get it apart im sure you would have had better luck. in the long run it'll be better to make new casting than to repair it. the owner knew the risk and allowed them to take it.

Most likely, yes. After all, we're talking about a guy who cut up and recast his lead keel because he decided that a repaired one wouldn't be up to his standards.

On the positive side, we hopefully now get to see them making a wooden pattern with method , then the casting process

Just the opposite for me, but yes!

I also found Keith Rucker through the threading machine repair, been hooked ever since...

That's right! Totally forgot all about it - was it the threading machine maybe?

I'm sure that Leo will try to get the thing motorized - 1/4th of his large battery bank is dedicated to the capstan.

Last night I watched the hanging of the door to what was called the engine room. Don’t know more, but seems that a hole is in the transom area that would normally be for the prop. Curiouser and curiouser…..😅

@@frederickstibbert7389 plenty of opportunity to do that with the design, keeping the manual function as well.

@@wrstew1272 You mean the front door?🤣 But I think that hole in the transom area was for the engine exhaust.

Power = 2x crew😂

I was kind of surprised he didn't send it to the evaporust tank for a week.

@@philbert006 I was kind of thinking the same thing. If the tank is big enough, great. But, I would have poured some on top. If it leaked through the 2 holes he tapped, just plug them and fill that space to the top and let it sit for a couple days. I was thinking it was a tapper fit, so who knows if the fluid would seeped down, but it would have helped some.

I agree that the capstan should have been sitting in a drum filled with diesel fuel or Evaporust for a couple of years before attempting a disassembly. In this case that wasn't gong to happen. The down side of soaking in oil would have been the smoke that would have come off it when it was then heated. The taper was not going to come apart without heating so the diesel would have been ugly cooking off. Considering the fact that the cap piece was already broken and missing a part of the rim, I think Keith made the correct call on destructive removal and recasting the part. I do hope the capstan project doesn't end up like the stoker engine however. By the way, where is the stoker engine now and what is its status? (We all have a project like the stoker engine.)

You know you're trying to teach granny to suck eggs, right
