Aww yeah

John willis

https://www.toolnut.co.uk/ seems to make some very tiny hand planes, about the size of a USB stick. The doll-sized ones sound amazing! (Enjoying the video so far😊)

Karl Buck

Wow very cool. Congratulations on a lovely restoration.

Loren Watts

I really enjoy your videos. It satiates my need to start a project and I can avoid the pain of having an unfinished project in my face. I live vicariously through your efforts. 😎

Robert Dicken

Great attention to detail, and it works!

Paul Grosskopf

No sandblasting, no brazing, no japanning, and all the brass is hidden under painted wood?!?! I don't even recognize this channel anymore. 🤨 Seriously though, this is like one of the coolest things you have done. I would have definitely been the target market for this thing.

Marcel Boudreau

Out fricken standing job. I have to admit I laughed out loud at the mini vacuum you used during the initial clean up. Thanks. Oh, is Jimmy going to ask for the finished boat back now that's it's all done?

Goose Gosselin

Love the longer format. I can imagine myself at the summer lake cottage putting hundreds of hours on it if I had this growing up, very cool restoration.

Izzy the Bootblack

Ok, I don’t know why, but the little fist hammer is kinda freaking me out. No clue why. Not really an “uncanny valley” thing… or maybe it is. Maybe my subconscious thinks you stole the hand of a baby to use as a tack hammer. 🤷🏻

HOW DARE YOU NOT KNOW WHAT OAKUM IS

rik

those vice jaws.. had a bit of anxiety myself watching that thing nearly tip over a couple of times. needs more lead.

Michael J. Herman

So sweet, Eric. Still wondering what the big hole is for.

Oscar Bartos

Transom is the term for the "back end" of the boat

Joe Langley

It's beautiful! Much better value than a full-size boat, too.

Timothy Mitchell

Don’t pounce I’ll be the first to tell you I’m no expert at any of this but could be oddball threads be some kind of pipe thread? My old man had a bunch of ancient brass pipe fittings that were some kind of oddball threads

TheOnespeedbiker

That is so cool! Thank you, more than worth the patreon!

Scott Jackson

Someone send Eric a 1904 Payson Brown Toboggan Plane (thumb-sized)

Last Born

I now owe 50% more attention to details when I watch your videos ...Thanks Tariff Czar ...worth it!!! You can put a home made SteamBoat Willie Doll at the helm ...and not get sued outta existence now ... fun stuff!

Marc McKenzie

Eric, you may remember me from way back when you began your journey. I have enjoyed every project - missed a couple of years during a severe illness, but I’ve caught up on everything now. Also really enjoy the FitZall podcast; when I have days I can work in my shop, it’s my favorite company. You, Jimmy, and Andrew are a great mix. Anyway, it’s been really fun to watch your skills progress so much. In this episode I especially enjoyed your use of the smallest HTR wrench – I of course have one. Best regards.🌿

rik

just watched the instagram video of the jaws in action..where the hell did you find those? I'm in lust. make a video on how they work.

Nathan ShrooMaker

And check out this place in Hamburg Germany. It’s unbelievable. https://www.miniatur-wunderland.de/ If you would like me to help with getting you the mini plane please let me know I live in Berlin and know some Canadians :)

louis ross

That is one of the most erotic things I've seen on the internet. YouTube has all sorts of opportunities. The craft you have added to it Eric, is amazing. Add the humour, and the background chit-chat, and you've got an unbeatable formula. Shame more people can't see and listen to this narrated version. Thanks.

when I was like 15 I got a gas powered model helicopter at a garage sale. got it home, cleaned it up, spent a few hours getting it working. got the nitro fuel and spent 10 minutes trying to pull start it, and finally I got it working! it start to pull up so I kinda left it lift off in my hands. and I watched with great satisfaction as it flew up. up. up.. wait... they it started to drift sideways. and it flew about 400 feet or so out into the woods, and was.. never seen again ... so I totally understand your thoughts of 'put a string on it so it doesnt go too far /get lost

Patrick Rainville

Love the thumbs up hammer! 👍🏻🔨I would have had so much anxiety about it bursting into flames. 🔥 What a transformation from what you started with.

Daniel F. Iyama-Kurtycz

Love it... Now for all those balsa airplane kits that I've collected in the last few decades.....(actually should set up as a trust for someone really OCD and neurotic).

FixMasterMike

I have several of these. The hole at the top deck is for the jacuzzi. There’s a Monopoly Man figure that comes with a couple flappers for the hot tub. Trust me on this.

sadie_is_upset

can you just put a youtube link in the post? both patreon and youtube are upset at me having a vpn and refuse to let me see anything :(

Old Crow Bourbon

1. I was hoping you would name it HMS Lady Churchill. 2. Is that hockey tape for the stairs? 3. I would guess the hull is the hardest part to get just right, so they make that. But the super structure doesn’t matter for sea worthiness. 4. And worst of all: where is the little tiny model of you looking out of a porthole, or waving at us from the deck? Jeez. 5. Thank you. This was one of your best videos. Keep up the good work.

Daniel

I believe the Lady Churchill was for the fairer sex… roaring 20’s and all

Daniel

Correction, lady churchill cigars were in honor of Winston’s mother

Clifton Ballad

So from what I gather, Mr Diresta lives fairly close to me... like an hour or 2 at the worst. If you ever want some help brazing or welding cast stuff, im here for it LoL

George Aitken

This had to be one of the most intricate build yet. Loved it.
