This technology for creating boats is very ancient and was passed down from generation to generation, from Father to son, today it is almost forgotten, but still there are "Craftsmen - well done" on Russian Land!
Let's look at what exactly the author would need to build a boat? And also consider all the stages and see the movie (Cut yourself a boot).
Materials
1. a tree of soft breed (willow, aspen)
Instruments
1. chainsaw
2. hacksaw
3. ax
4. tesla
5. jointer
6. fire source (blowtorch)
Master class from Ivan Petrovich Ovchinnikov, in building do-it-yourself boats
And so, the author adopted this technology from his Father, and he, in turn, from his parent). In ancient times in Russia, as you know, the main building material was wood, and it was also made furniture, dishes, peasant equipment, carts and more.
Boats and boats, respectively, were also built of wood, for this whole artels and brigades were created. It may seem strange .., but the boats started to do in the winter, when the tree is still in a dream. The most suitable tree (aspen) was selected in the forest, the rook was cut down and shaped, after which the harvest was covered with snow and remained in this position until early spring. During this time, the tree properly absorbed moisture. Why leave the boat in the forest, and even in the snow ??? The fact is that for the further process of forming a boat, you need to dry it over an open fire, put spacers, thereby betraying its final shape (everything is described in detail in the film)
But d.Vanya went a slightly different easier way, chose in advance a large and thick one (willow), sawed off under the very spine) removed the bark and proceeded to form the boat.As you can see in the photo, the author first makes a gash, and then cuts with an hatchet, does everything professionally with minimal labor) The log turns D. Vanya alone, because he is a Russian hero and eats porridge in the morning, and the master knows the laws of physics and applies the lever (scrap) and easily rotates the workpiece as he wants) Using an ax sets the shape.Then Ivan Petrovich proceeds to the manufacture of the inside of the boat, using the same ax and adze.2 partitions were left inside, they will serve as stiffeners for the construction of the boat.That's actually what happens, the botnik is almost ready.The master skillfully works with Tesla, because he adopted this art from his Father.After the boat was made. it was processed using a blowtorch, so that later the wood was not afraid of moisture and served the owner for a long time.Such a wonderful boat was obtained by our author, now he will be able to sail along the Don and catch fish. As you can see, the master cut the boat was pretty simple, and most importantly, the material is free and given by nature itself.
You can also watch a very good film about the manufacture of boats "Dolblenok" according to old technology.
