As we're sitting here about to start, and I was trying to figure out how to start the show,

0:04.9

I looked behind you, and I see a little sign on the wall, Jimmy, that says, Go-Carts,

0:09.2

which made me realize that you haven't given us an update lately on your Go-Cart build.

0:14.4

Well, I have, I've collected all the parts, and I want to see how far I want to really get

0:19.2

through the boat that I started working on, I'm working on a rowboat. And it's funny, I noticed a few people just chatted about the boat when I said I'm using the old planks from the front of the house to make the boat. They're picturing like a boat like Ernest Shackleton would get caught in the ice. I'm building, not building it.

0:37.6

Like those planks get cut up into a real thin strip. So the boat I'm making is like a cedar strip canoe, but instead it's in a robo shape. So rowboat shape. It's just like the canoe that I built. So just to clear that up, because a few people ask me, they're like, how are you going to bend that thick wood? it's going to be cut into thin strips.

0:54.6

And yesterday, on the rowboat, I was able to put on... blast me. They're like, how are you going to bend that thick wood? It's going to be cut into thin strips.

1:00.2

And yesterday, on the rowboat, I was able to put on for the first time, the very first two planks,

1:07.3

which establish the upper edge. So I finally got to that. The holdup for the boat itself has been whether I bead and cove each piece, so that would mean that there's like a calm cave on one side and a convex on the other so that they stack into each other.

1:17.6

But I'm going to try a different technique where each one gets hand-plained to the flat surface of the next one that it receives.

1:24.6

But besides that, the canoe, besides the boat, rather, the go-court,

1:29.3

I have the parts, the roll piled right here. And I'm afraid I'm going to run out of time.

1:33.8

So I'm thinking I might buy a frame because there's plenty on Facebook market and then modify

1:39.3

it to the vision I have. So that a lot of the stuff is already there so I'm just going to

1:45.4

what I'm thinking I mean if also if you run out of time you have like half a boat and half a

1:50.5

go card so you know putting those together into yeah that's a really good idea yeah so there's

1:57.9

five million views right there So that's happening

2:01.3

And yeah

2:03.4

Called a go boat

2:04.7

Go boat

2:05.1

2:08.1
