Homemade Catamaran Build part 1

Despite what it may look like I actually have no idea what im doing, but here's a few thoughts (hmu on snapchat or in the comments if you have any questions)

I designed this hull using freeShip, a free CAD program that generates 2-D plates that form the sides and bulkheads from a 3-D model; this is a super easy way to build an original boat with minimal drafting. A lot of work isnt shown in the video because: 1, I didn't think I would make a yt channel a year ago, and 2, it would be boring to watch me poking around for d a y s in the CAD program or drawing dots and lines on planks. Anyways... with all the tedious work done I cut the shapes from 3mm and 5mm okume marine grade plywood and stitched them together (its pretty magical how nicely all the flat pieces fit and bend to create the form) by drilling small holes and threading them with small bits of wire. While the basic shape was being held together by the stitching, I glued the edges of the boat using epoxy filled with wood flour (silica fillers are OVER rated, they are incredibly fine, so static charges make it stick to whatever it touches. Also, I will likely get lung cancer 60 years from now from when i inevitably inhaled some of the spooky white stuff through my shoddy mask). The fillets were covered with 3in wide fiberglass tape and soaked thoroughly. Once the inner seams hardened overnight the boat was flipped and I rounded the edges to better adhere to the fiberglass. I covered the bottom of the hull and two inches up the sides with glass and put a spit coat of epoxy on the rest of the sides to make the boat watertight.
I left out a bunch of stuff, but... is anyone reading this?


shout out to kraljic, i'm finally working on my senior project o_o
