A wind-powered wooden boat joins Woodworking Craftsman's curved bed and BBQ table
The newest upload follows a master carpenter building a boat by hand, from raw timber to hull, cabin and engine.
Woodworking CraftsmanStory of Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Full Process Build Wind-powered Wooden Boat of a 50 Year Old Master Craftsman
Among the DIY and home channels nearest its size, Woodworking Craftsman gained the fewest views of the week, a little under 200,000, while BAS Renovations had an enormous run. That ranking hides a lively few days, though: the channel's daily pace sits well above its usual level, running at roughly 43,000 views a day against a typical 27,000.
Most of that lift comes from a ten-day-old video, "Making Curved Cross Joints Bed Monolithic," which has passed 19,000 views. It is a build about joinery hidden inside a bed frame. The description promises dozens of fitted solid-wood pieces that only reveal themselves as a bed at the end. Its tags also call it "A Thousand-Dollar Bed."
Three new uploads went up. A curved hexagonal coffee table came first, then a garden BBQ table built on the same cross-joint idea as the bed. On Friday came the odd one out, "Full Process Build Wind-powered Wooden Boat of a 50 Year Old Master Craftsman." Billed as an uncut record of one carpenter's dream boat, it runs from choosing and shaping the timber through the hull and cabin to fitting a single engine. A sail-and-engine boat on a furniture channel is a change of scenery, and it is already the quickest of the three new videos.
Subscribers held steady at about 1.1 million.
