Project Photo Gallery If I'd known a web site was in my future, I would have been taking pictures of completed Buck Woodcraft projects all along. But I didn't. So what you'll see here is just a very small selection of project photos that will continue to grow as we document custom work in the future. As always, if you have any comments or questions about what you see here, e-mail me. Click on any photo to enlarge it
The finished platform measures approximately 8'L x 24"W x 1"D, and is bolted to a series of stainless steel supports. The original platform had three support struts, and we added two more. Additional support is always something to consider when using Starboard in this kind of application.
Like all King Starboard components--and unlike wood--these cabinets can spend many years exposed to the marine environment without the need for cosmetic attention.
The cabinets include drawers, under-counter storage and enclosures for a microwave, dishwasher, oven and a trash compacter. We made the drawers using solid hardwood with hand-cut dovetail joinery.
The original seat was plywood, which had weathered and delaminated over time.
The original cap rails were worn and getting thin, and the original bolsters were rotting and falling apart. The cap rails were fabricated using solid pieces of teak, and used no laminations. The rails were 18-1/2" at the widest point, and we used no visible fasteners or bungs in the face.
We laminated the new 7' bowsprit entirely of Genuine teak, cut and shaped it to its finished dimensions, and installed the finished piece in exactly the same position as the original. The owners reinstalled the sprit platform and completed all the rigging themselves. We've built other bowsprits, of course, including one that measured 12' overall. |
