Shopcam's demise was an ugly death. He fell into an open 5 gal. can of FGCI
adhesive resin. I had moved it down below so everyone could keep track of
the work inside but it got distracting to hear the whirring behind me as
people panned around. I had put it on the work bench until I could
reinstall it up high when the end came. :-(

Speaking of boatbuilding videos, I am almost embarrassed to say that the
absolute BEST TV show I have ever seen on boat building was a Martha
Stewart's Living show covering start to finish the building of her Hinckley
Picnic. Covered everything from working out the interior layout through
infusion molding the hull to composite cabinet work, laminated wood trim,
electrical and plumbing systems and LPU fairing and paint systems. She
could have devoted the last 5 minutes to something other than how to choose
fabrics to go with the hand rubbed cherry interior and the flower
arrangements and wine for the launching party. But then I should have paid
more attention to that too as my interior is all hand rubbed cherry. :-)

The best of these ever was a time-lapse video of Harold Burnam's crew
building a large boat by traditional methods, outdoors in winter, next to
the river in Essex, MA.
Highlights included the ground under the stern being flooded at high tide,
snowstorms and the tracks of workers after them, and (my favorite) ice
flowing past in the river. After seeing this, i stopped complaining about
my shop. Briefly.

Glenn- what happened to the shop cam?

I have a vhs tape showing a dinghy project I did once. When I get it on
my computer I'll post it.

I should have done video on more projects I have done . . .

Mean while, here's a couple of dolphin surfing my bow wave.

There's some good stuff on Youtube. The challenge is finding stuff YOU
like.
