Videos from other people about Tally Ho
Most of the blog pages on this site are Leo's, but there are occasional other videos that I think are worth including. Usually about other work on/for parts of Tally Ho. I'm not presently sure how best to curate this, soo it may change with time.
Tally Ho Capstan Restoration 1: Disassembly -It Fought me the Whole Way!
Traditionally, a coin is placed under the main mast of a vessel when the mast is first stepped (put into place). This is a celebratory even and is done to bring good luck.
Leo at Sampson Boat Company asked if I could help him by doing a repair to a broken casting off of a pipe threading machine that he purchased. We started by removing bronze bushings that slide on some rails and then brazing the broken casting back together.
I will show how I turn bronze bushings on an expandable mandrel on the metal lathe and then press them in place on my arbor press.
Today we build a traditional English Joiners mallet for Talley ho. this mallet head was made from the same lumber the ship is being rebuilt from.
