The one sheet boat (OSB, cf. oriented strand board) is an outgrowth of the stitch and glue technique. The OSB is a boat that can be built using a single sheet of 4 foot by 8 foot plywood (1.22 m × 2.44 m). Some additional wood is often used, for supports, chines, or as a transom, though some can be built entirely with the sheet of plywood ...
The design and construction of deadrise workboats evolved from the sailing skipjacks.One of the first types of purpose-built small powered fishing boats to appear on the Chesapeake Bay were the Hooper Island draketails of the 1920s and 1930s.
A number of boat building texts are available which describe the carvel planking method in detail. [4] Clinker is a planking-first technique originally identified with the Scandinavians and Ingveonic people in which wooden planks are fixed to each other with a slight overlap that is beveled for a tight fit. The planks are mechanically connected ...
Oxygen arc cutting and arc welding underwater requires greater skill and stamina than working in a dry and stable environment. The underwater environment imposes several limitations and restrictions on both the equipment and the operator, and the restriction of short bottom times at greater depths for surface-oriented divers makes efficient working important to getting the job done in a ...
This is a list of welding processes, separated into their respective categories. The associated N reference numbers (second column) are specified in ISO 4063 (in the European Union published as EN ISO 4063 ). [ 1 ]
Close-up view of a friction stir weld tack tool. The bulkhead and nosecone of the Orion spacecraft are joined using friction stir welding. Joint designs. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process that uses a non-consumable tool to join two facing workpieces without melting the workpiece material.

Oxygas welding station (keep cylinders and hoses away from the flame) Gas welding/cutting goggles and safety helmet. Oxyacetylene welding/cutting is generally considered not to be difficult, but there are a good number of subtle safety points that should be learned such as: More than 1/7 the capacity of the cylinder should not be used per hour.
