In the past, we've had a look in the garage at the piles, en masse, of the mahogany lumber that came out of Victoria, but this week's video goes through a pretty extensive and specific inventory of what we have to play with for reclaimed wood as we put the interior together.

Carolyn patterns a partial bulkhead, while Steve gets to finishing the bulkhead that defines the forepeak. This is one of the first times in a long time where 90 degree angles have come into play, as the trim for the passage to the forepeak comes together.

Finish work, meaning sanding and applying coatings, is satisfying for so many reasons. You'll be seeing us do a lot of sanding, painting, and varnishing, slowly revealing the beautiful patterns of once-thirsty, glowing grain. Keep an eye out for a bonus video next week that's dedicated to that satisfying process. Best way to know when it's up is to hit the subscribe button, then the bell, to get notifications.

Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building their own 38' wooden boat in their backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and beyond—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
