00:00:13.820 --> 00:00:15.650
I'm Jimmy DiResta, and I'm a maker.

00:00:15.740 --> 00:00:18.450
That's a hip way of saying
I make things… like this.

00:00:18.530 --> 00:00:19.660
Pretty cool, right?

00:00:20.370 --> 00:00:21.200
Walk with me.

00:00:21.700 --> 00:00:24.540
For years, I made my name
as a toy designer in New York City.

00:00:24.620 --> 00:00:28.540
Then I realized I don't like the city,
I don't like designing toys,

00:00:28.620 --> 00:00:31.290
and to be honest with you,
I don't really like kids.

00:00:31.380 --> 00:00:32.920
It's not like I hate them or anything.

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:35.630
It's just it's,
"Check out my little Timmy."

00:00:35.710 --> 00:00:36.550
I don't care.

00:00:37.090 --> 00:00:38.090
Look at my birds.

00:00:39.930 --> 00:00:41.850
So anyway, I quit my job,

00:00:41.930 --> 00:00:45.270
I left the city,
and I moved upstate to here, my farm.

00:00:45.350 --> 00:00:47.850
I got land, I got animals,

00:00:48.440 --> 00:00:50.480
and best of all I have this.

00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:53.070
The ultimate maker workshop!

00:00:53.570 --> 00:00:57.990
Inside, I have every kind of tool
and machine imaginable to make things.

00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:00.950
Pretty impressive stuff, huh?

00:01:01.950 --> 00:01:05.330
Really? You're labeling the table
like that's some sort of impress--

00:01:05.410 --> 00:01:06.910
"Bag"? We can just--

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:09.370
Okay. Graphics guy trying to be funny.

00:01:09.460 --> 00:01:11.880
Can we please get on with it? Anyway…

00:01:11.960 --> 00:01:14.960
So I got a call to be on a TV show
'cause I'm a maker celebrity or whatever.

00:01:15.050 --> 00:01:17.260
I said, "Sure. Cool." Why not, right?

00:01:17.340 --> 00:01:18.300
So I agreed.

00:01:19.050 --> 00:01:21.050
Then I found out who I'd be working for.

00:01:21.140 --> 00:01:22.050
Jimmy!

00:01:22.140 --> 00:01:23.470
-Hi.
-Hi!

00:01:23.550 --> 00:01:24.470
Jimmy!

00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:25.390
Hey, Jimmy.

00:01:25.470 --> 00:01:26.600
What do you want?

00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:28.480
Okay, Mr. Grouch.

00:01:29.690 --> 00:01:34.150
Thirty years of expert build experience,
and I'm taking orders from half-pints.

00:01:34.230 --> 00:01:37.650
Because misery loves company,
I brought my buddies in on it with me.

00:01:37.740 --> 00:01:38.570
Say hi, guys.

00:01:38.650 --> 00:01:39.490
-Howdy!
-Hello!

00:01:39.570 --> 00:01:42.570
That's Jackman.
He's an engineer, and he plans everything.

00:01:42.660 --> 00:01:44.780
It's really annoying, but he's good at it.

00:01:44.870 --> 00:01:46.330
That's Derek, my best friend.

00:01:46.410 --> 00:01:49.540
Big guy and even bigger softie.

00:01:50.330 --> 00:01:51.500
This is Graz.

00:01:51.580 --> 00:01:53.080
Good maker, bad jokes.

00:01:53.580 --> 00:01:54.880
And Canadian Pat.

00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:58.460
Well, your guess is as good as mine.

00:01:58.550 --> 00:01:59.550
Let's have some fun.

00:02:03.720 --> 00:02:05.600
Together, we'll take pitches on this.

00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:08.270
Listen to whatever
their dumb little brains can come up with.

00:02:08.350 --> 00:02:10.520
The Pig Tripper. It trips the pig.

00:02:10.600 --> 00:02:13.270
-Wow.
-So a catapult that throws cat poop?

00:02:13.350 --> 00:02:15.150
-Yes.

00:02:15.230 --> 00:02:18.320
If it's interesting or doable,
I'll build it. If not--

00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:19.360
Next!

00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:20.610
-Next!
-No way.

00:02:20.690 --> 00:02:22.070
-Next!
-Shut up!

00:02:22.150 --> 00:02:24.030
-Some builds will be good.

00:02:24.110 --> 00:02:25.950
Dino Taco Toilet.

00:02:26.030 --> 00:02:27.530
Are you not entertained?

00:02:27.620 --> 00:02:29.200
Some builds will be bad.

00:02:29.290 --> 00:02:31.540
Graz, I told you
the scissors were gonna be too heavy!

00:02:31.620 --> 00:02:32.670
Make a bigger handle!

00:02:32.750 --> 00:02:34.790
But all of them
will be absolutely pointless.

00:02:34.880 --> 00:02:37.000
-Yeah!
-That is disgusting.

00:02:38.250 --> 00:02:39.920
Whoa!

00:02:40.510 --> 00:02:43.720
-I want the unicorn to fart!
-I can't believe I'm doing this.

00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:45.890
-Go, Graz!

00:02:45.970 --> 00:02:48.970
Why are we doing this?
Because we make things. That's what we do.

00:02:49.060 --> 00:02:52.020
-Thought we weren't supposed to have fun.
-I'm not having fun!

00:02:52.810 --> 00:02:54.810
We're gonna show these kids,
if they can dream it up…

00:02:54.900 --> 00:02:57.900
I want it to be a guitar boat that floats.

00:02:57.980 --> 00:02:59.110
You're onto something there.

00:02:59.190 --> 00:03:00.780
…it can be built.

00:03:01.780 --> 00:03:03.110
Oh!

00:03:03.200 --> 00:03:04.780
That is so cool!

00:03:04.860 --> 00:03:06.780
Hey, it might even
inspire them to build

00:03:06.870 --> 00:03:08.990
outside their little Minecraft -y world,
or whatever.

00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:10.910
-Do I wanna do it?

00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:12.500
Dumbest thing we've ever made.

00:03:12.580 --> 00:03:15.670
Not really.
But this isn't about me, is it?

00:03:15.750 --> 00:03:17.880
-So here we are.
-You better get to work!

00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:19.960
Funny how their dreams are my nightmare.

00:03:21.260 --> 00:03:23.260
Come on, Jimmy. Have some fun.

00:03:23.340 --> 00:03:24.170
Whatever.

00:03:37.592 --> 00:03:39.677
-Can I have some more nuts?

00:03:43.014 --> 00:03:44.766
You just gave me all raisins!

00:03:45.767 --> 00:03:48.102
Pat, what are raisins called in Canada?

00:03:48.186 --> 00:03:49.270
Dried raisin.

00:03:49.771 --> 00:03:52.899
They call grapes raisins,
and they call these dried raisins.

00:03:52.982 --> 00:03:54.817
This is a glitch in the Matrix right now.

00:03:54.901 --> 00:03:57.153
This doesn't make sense.
Would you like a raisin?

00:03:57.237 --> 00:03:58.071
Yeah. Please.

00:03:59.322 --> 00:04:01.866
-Oh. Little higher.
-Almost went into his pocket.

00:04:01.950 --> 00:04:03.952
-I don't wanna waste my nuts.
-Oh!

00:04:04.452 --> 00:04:05.411
So close, Graz.

00:04:07.247 --> 00:04:08.373
It went in and out.

00:04:08.456 --> 00:04:09.666
Go like this, first.

00:04:10.166 --> 00:04:11.042
Wait. No.

00:04:11.125 --> 00:04:12.168
Pat.

00:04:12.252 --> 00:04:14.087
-You got it!
-Oh!

00:04:14.170 --> 00:04:16.673
-What just happened there?

00:04:19.217 --> 00:04:20.176
-Ready?
-Yeah.

00:04:20.260 --> 00:04:22.512
We have kids' pitches.
Let's get this over with.

00:04:22.595 --> 00:04:23.846
All right.

00:04:24.347 --> 00:04:25.848
I'm gonna sit on Pat's lap.

00:04:25.932 --> 00:04:27.475
First kid up. Let's go.

00:04:27.558 --> 00:04:28.393
Hi!

00:04:28.476 --> 00:04:29.519
-Hi!
-Oh boy.

00:04:29.602 --> 00:04:30.687
What are your names?

00:04:30.770 --> 00:04:33.690
My name is Locke, and I'm nine.

00:04:33.773 --> 00:04:36.442
Lianne, and I am six.

00:04:36.526 --> 00:04:38.278
I'm Addy, and this is Wilson.

00:04:38.361 --> 00:04:39.529
Nevaeh.

00:04:39.612 --> 00:04:42.240
Nevaeh, is this a YouTube makeup tutorial?

00:04:42.323 --> 00:04:44.534
I totally have too much ChapStick on!

00:04:44.617 --> 00:04:45.451
You and Graz.

00:04:45.535 --> 00:04:46.661
What? No.

00:04:46.744 --> 00:04:48.121
-Yeah.
No!

00:04:48.204 --> 00:04:49.956
Where in the world are you guys?

00:04:50.039 --> 00:04:51.624
We're in California.

00:04:51.708 --> 00:04:53.418
What highway do you take to school?

00:04:53.501 --> 00:04:55.003
We take the 10 freeway.

00:04:55.086 --> 00:04:57.630
Do you take the 10 to the 405 to the 5?

00:04:57.714 --> 00:04:59.007
No. We do not.

00:04:59.090 --> 00:05:01.175
-Leave them alone. They're nice kids.

00:05:01.259 --> 00:05:02.885
You guys have some ideas for me?

00:05:02.969 --> 00:05:06.264
An animal avenger ATV course.

00:05:06.347 --> 00:05:08.975
And it's with a volcano in the middle

00:05:09.058 --> 00:05:13.980
that shoots out slime lava
with a river with crocodiles.

00:05:14.063 --> 00:05:16.816
-Might as well throw bees in.
-Yeah. How about killer bees?

00:05:16.899 --> 00:05:18.568
-No. No.
-No.

00:05:18.651 --> 00:05:21.446
-No. That would be ridiculous.

00:05:21.529 --> 00:05:23.656
It's called Cupquake Kitchen.

00:05:23.740 --> 00:05:24.991
Cupquake Kitchen.

00:05:25.074 --> 00:05:26.993
-I like the name.
-It's a good brand name.

00:05:27.076 --> 00:05:29.579
Yeah. It's a trampoline dance party.

00:05:29.662 --> 00:05:31.205
Trampoline dance party?

00:05:31.289 --> 00:05:33.499
We actually have a model.

00:05:33.583 --> 00:05:34.709
A model?

00:05:34.792 --> 00:05:36.669
You put eight marshmallows down,

00:05:36.753 --> 00:05:38.671
and you melted them into puffcakes.

00:05:38.755 --> 00:05:39.797
Seven marshmallows.

00:05:39.881 --> 00:05:42.050
-Yeah.
-More like seven.

00:05:44.719 --> 00:05:48.056
It's called Cupquake Kitchen
because at random times

00:05:48.139 --> 00:05:51.809
it does a random earthquake sound,
and you have to dance for ten seconds.

00:05:51.893 --> 00:05:54.645
You realize dancing is not in my contract.

00:05:57.065 --> 00:05:58.191
No.

00:05:58.274 --> 00:05:59.525
Not gonna watch.

00:05:59.609 --> 00:06:03.821
-Locke, what music do you like?
-My favorite music is country.

00:06:03.905 --> 00:06:05.990
Yeah. Next. Get them out. Get them out.

00:06:06.074 --> 00:06:09.535
So you want me to create
a hurricane, a volcano, a waterfall.

00:06:09.619 --> 00:06:11.496
What actually do you want me to make?

00:06:11.579 --> 00:06:14.040
You just asked me to create
like 13 miracles.

00:06:14.123 --> 00:06:17.335
You're just jealous
'cause our ideas are better than yours.

00:06:18.252 --> 00:06:20.713
I think I'm on TV,
and you're on a Zoom call.

00:06:21.881 --> 00:06:24.217
-You guys know what this means?
-He's warming it up.

00:06:24.300 --> 00:06:26.135
-You like country music?
- Yeah.

00:06:26.219 --> 00:06:29.847
Interesting. You could write a sad song
about how you were swiped off a TV show.

00:06:31.474 --> 00:06:32.600
-Heartless.
-Next.

00:06:32.683 --> 00:06:35.686
Now on one, two, three
we go like this. One, two, three.

00:06:35.770 --> 00:06:36.604
No!

00:06:38.940 --> 00:06:41.734
-It's never not funny.
-We're gonna sleep on the idea.

00:06:41.818 --> 00:06:44.529
Like they say in Hollywood,
"Don't call us, we'll call you."

00:06:44.612 --> 00:06:45.822
Thanks, Jimmy Fallon!

00:06:45.905 --> 00:06:47.865
-Bye!

00:06:50.159 --> 00:06:51.953
Is it hot in here, or is it me?

00:06:52.036 --> 00:06:53.538
-These ideas suck.
-Definitely not you.

00:06:54.539 --> 00:06:56.624
Oh! What's up, buddy? What's your name?

00:06:56.707 --> 00:06:59.043
Hi. My name is Jayden Han.

00:06:59.127 --> 00:07:00.920
Where are you? What city are you in?

00:07:01.003 --> 00:07:02.797
Uh, Garden Grove, California.

00:07:02.880 --> 00:07:04.048
Okay. How old are you?

00:07:04.132 --> 00:07:06.217
I am almost 12 years old.

00:07:06.300 --> 00:07:08.719
-I thought you were gonna say 32.

00:07:08.803 --> 00:07:10.513
What do you wanna be when you grow up?

00:07:10.596 --> 00:07:12.432
I would love to be an actor
when I grow up.

00:07:12.515 --> 00:07:13.433
Really?

00:07:13.516 --> 00:07:15.268
Can you do Christopher Walken?

00:07:16.394 --> 00:07:18.104
No. I don't think so.

00:07:18.187 --> 00:07:21.149
Come on. You gotta do Christopher Walken.

00:07:22.650 --> 00:07:25.278
How about DeNiro? Can you do DeNiro?

00:07:25.778 --> 00:07:28.364
-Uh…
-You gotta do just a little bit.

00:07:28.448 --> 00:07:31.617
I don't know
who anybody you guys talk about is.

00:07:31.701 --> 00:07:34.579
-I never get the references either.
-All right. All right.

00:07:34.662 --> 00:07:36.205
Do you have an idea for us?

00:07:36.289 --> 00:07:39.333
-Ah, yes. I'm in love with music.
-Okay.

00:07:39.417 --> 00:07:42.253
And of my favorite instruments
is the guitar.

00:07:42.336 --> 00:07:47.925
So I would love for you
to make me a guitar.

00:07:48.009 --> 00:07:50.178
-You want me to make you a guitar?
-Let's do it.

00:07:50.261 --> 00:07:51.304
Yes.
-That's it?

00:07:51.387 --> 00:07:54.390
Say yeah before he complicates it.
-A gigantic guitar.

00:07:54.474 --> 00:07:58.352
No. I want it as big as a boat.

00:07:58.436 --> 00:08:03.441
I want it to be a guitar-boat
that floats on water!

00:08:04.275 --> 00:08:06.194
-Just give up.

00:08:06.277 --> 00:08:07.695
So wait… So you started,

00:08:07.778 --> 00:08:10.323
"I want a guitar."
Then, "I want a big guitar."

00:08:10.406 --> 00:08:12.825
"I want it big as a boat."
"I want it to be a boat."

00:08:12.909 --> 00:08:14.368
Tell me how you see the boat.

00:08:14.452 --> 00:08:16.787
Where does somebody sit?
What happens? How does it work?

00:08:16.871 --> 00:08:20.917
Well, lucky for you,
I have a design up my sleeve.

00:08:21.501 --> 00:08:23.044
Oh boy.

00:08:23.127 --> 00:08:25.880
-It's a beauty. Isn't it?
-More planning than you've done, Jimmy.

00:08:25.963 --> 00:08:30.343
These fret things would be the seats,
and they would be humongous.

00:08:30.426 --> 00:08:33.095
So if those are the seats,
that thing is 85 feet long.

00:08:33.179 --> 00:08:36.182
-We're all gonna sit on this thing.
-I'm not building you a cruise ship.

00:08:36.265 --> 00:08:37.517
Fair enough.

00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:39.977
-I like the idea of a big guitar.
-Me too.

00:08:40.061 --> 00:08:42.438
-I like the idea of a big guitar boat.
-How big?

00:08:42.522 --> 00:08:45.900
My canoe is on the wall.
I mean, that's 17 feet long.

00:08:45.983 --> 00:08:49.028
What if we made a guitar boat
that was big enough for two guys?

00:08:49.111 --> 00:08:51.030
One Pat Lap and one Graz?

00:08:51.113 --> 00:08:53.074
It'll fit one and a half people.

00:08:53.157 --> 00:08:55.117
Low-hanging fruit,
I wish I could reach it.

00:08:55.201 --> 00:08:57.912
So, what if we used the paddles,

00:08:57.995 --> 00:09:00.081
and it was big guitar picks at the end?

00:09:00.164 --> 00:09:02.708
Oh, a big… Oh yeah. That's a good idea.

00:09:02.792 --> 00:09:05.127
You like that idea?
What is the yellow thing?

00:09:05.211 --> 00:09:09.382
Oh, this is just the design.
I want it to be like a bolt.

00:09:09.465 --> 00:09:11.676
Yeah. It just looks really cool.

00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:14.262
You want it to be different
than the other guitar boats?

00:09:14.345 --> 00:09:16.222
You're dang right I do!

00:09:18.140 --> 00:09:19.392
I, I, I like this idea.

00:09:19.475 --> 00:09:22.061
You guys like this idea
to make a big, giant guitar boat?

00:09:22.144 --> 00:09:25.356
-It won't look like that drawing.
-It could be really fun.

00:09:25.439 --> 00:09:27.984
-Jayden, we're gonna make your guitar.
-Yes! Yes!

00:09:28.693 --> 00:09:29.735
See you.

00:09:31.612 --> 00:09:33.781
Strumbody's gonna be happy.

00:09:33.864 --> 00:09:34.782
What?

00:09:34.865 --> 00:09:37.535
Strumbody's gonna be really happy
if we make it.

00:09:38.953 --> 00:09:41.122
Tune in later in the show
when we build this guitar.

00:09:41.205 --> 00:09:43.165
-Strum? Oh, that's good.
-Tune.

00:09:43.791 --> 00:09:46.168
Jimmy, you really changed
your tune on that one.

00:09:46.252 --> 00:09:47.920
Oh, that's a good one.

00:09:48.004 --> 00:09:49.880
Horrible. Let's get to work.

00:09:58.472 --> 00:10:00.266
So this is a boat,

00:10:01.017 --> 00:10:04.228
and this is a guitar.

00:10:04.312 --> 00:10:05.938
We're gonna combine them.

00:10:06.022 --> 00:10:09.859
I see the body of the guitar being made
with plywood and some bendy plywood.

00:10:09.942 --> 00:10:13.154
I'm seeing about eight feet,
nine feet from here to here.

00:10:13.237 --> 00:10:14.822
Eight feet for a sheet of plywood.

00:10:14.905 --> 00:10:16.824
Eight feet for a sheet of plywood.
You got it.

00:10:16.907 --> 00:10:18.367
Keep the numbers easy.

00:10:18.451 --> 00:10:20.578
This will be the front of the boat.
If somebody's here…

00:10:20.661 --> 00:10:21.495
Yeah.

00:10:21.579 --> 00:10:23.706
We'll do big cut-outs
so people can hang out.

00:10:23.789 --> 00:10:24.624
Yeah.

00:10:24.707 --> 00:10:27.460
Making a big guitar is one thing,
but we have to make it float.

00:10:27.543 --> 00:10:29.170
So we gotta make it buoyant.

00:10:30.504 --> 00:10:31.922
That's a fun word. Buoyant.

00:10:32.006 --> 00:10:34.300
-"Boint"? "Boint."
-"Boint"?

00:10:34.383 --> 00:10:35.217
Buoyant.

00:10:35.301 --> 00:10:37.637
-Buoyant. That's what I said.
-Buoyant?

00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:39.972
Is that before an adult ant?
It's a "boy ant"?

00:10:40.056 --> 00:10:41.724
-Ha!

00:10:42.558 --> 00:10:43.976
You'll make a good dad.

00:10:44.060 --> 00:10:46.187
We're also gonna
have to make it waterproof

00:10:46.270 --> 00:10:48.272
in the way that we're gonna
have to put epoxy.

00:10:48.356 --> 00:10:52.109
Maybe we'll get fancy, and we'll do
some veneer, like some Walnut veneer.

00:10:52.193 --> 00:10:55.613
Jackman, we're gonna rely on your carving
capabilities and making the whole neck.

00:10:55.696 --> 00:10:56.989
All right, I can do that.

00:10:57.073 --> 00:10:59.033
Let's not forget
the kid wanted a lightning bolt.

00:10:59.116 --> 00:11:01.077
So we gotta do some sorta
wood burning on the top.

00:11:01.160 --> 00:11:03.788
What's that? You put
the two electrodes on the sides,

00:11:03.871 --> 00:11:05.665
and then a lightning bolt goes…

00:11:05.748 --> 00:11:07.083
-Lichtenberg?
-We do that.

00:11:07.166 --> 00:11:10.753
We can make lightning bolts burn in
on the top. It'll look really cool.

00:11:10.836 --> 00:11:14.090
We talked a little bit about making
the paddles look like guitar chips.

00:11:14.173 --> 00:11:15.424
-Picks.
-Picks.

00:11:15.508 --> 00:11:18.010
-You never say guitar chip?
-A guitar chip?

00:11:18.094 --> 00:11:19.303
-Yeah.
-No.

00:11:19.387 --> 00:11:21.806
I've been saying guitar chip
my whole life.

00:11:21.889 --> 00:11:23.516
He plays guitar
with a Dorito.

00:11:23.599 --> 00:11:25.726
Your mother gave you some bad information.

00:11:25.810 --> 00:11:27.436
Derek and I will take care of the body.

00:11:27.520 --> 00:11:30.648
Jackman, you work on the neck
with Graz's help.

00:11:30.731 --> 00:11:33.150
-Pat, you work on the paddle chips.
-Yeah.

00:11:33.234 --> 00:11:34.944
We'll get this thing coming together.

00:11:35.027 --> 00:11:38.197
-I'll do the lightning bolts too.
-Work on the bolts, but be careful.

00:11:38.280 --> 00:11:39.782
-It's dangerous.
-Perfect.

00:11:39.865 --> 00:11:42.159
Let's get materials. Let's get started.

00:11:42.243 --> 00:11:46.122
All right. Well, if I don't get
electrocuted, at least I'll drown.

00:11:51.001 --> 00:11:53.379
I have a design up my sleeve.

00:11:53.462 --> 00:11:55.256
That floats on water!

00:12:03.097 --> 00:12:06.767
We gotta make it buoyant
We gotta make it float.

00:12:07.518 --> 00:12:08.853
Guitar boat.

00:12:08.936 --> 00:12:10.396
Guitar boat.

00:12:23.242 --> 00:12:24.910
The first thing you and I have to do

00:12:24.994 --> 00:12:27.788
is figure out
what the body is gonna be shaped like.

00:12:29.623 --> 00:12:32.334
The challenge with this build
is that we have to build a guitar

00:12:32.418 --> 00:12:35.880
that's big enough to hold two people
but light enough to float.

00:12:35.963 --> 00:12:38.924
Okay, what we're gonna do
is use this sheet of plywood

00:12:39.008 --> 00:12:40.634
to make our first quadrant.

00:12:40.718 --> 00:12:43.721
The guitar body is gonna be made
in two quadrants on the top

00:12:43.804 --> 00:12:44.930
and two on the bottom.

00:12:45.014 --> 00:12:49.602
So we need four pieces to make up
the full top and back of the guitar.

00:12:49.685 --> 00:12:52.855
And once we establish
the shape of this one quarter,

00:12:52.938 --> 00:12:54.565
we'll use it to make the other three.

00:12:54.648 --> 00:12:55.483
All right.

00:12:55.566 --> 00:12:57.735
We're gonna use this ruler
to create some fair curves.

00:12:57.818 --> 00:13:02.198
A guitar body has a pretty simple shape,
but we wanna make sure we get it right.

00:13:02.281 --> 00:13:03.324
Go slow.

00:13:03.407 --> 00:13:07.995
Because any mistake on this first piece
is gonna get copied to the other pieces.

00:13:08.078 --> 00:13:09.038
I'm a good marker.

00:13:09.121 --> 00:13:11.540
Unlike our other builds,
we're not covering this guitar

00:13:11.624 --> 00:13:13.209
with a bunch of foam and paint.

00:13:13.292 --> 00:13:15.127
-That's it. There you go.
-Nice.

00:13:15.211 --> 00:13:17.546
We wanna keep it natural
so it looks real.

00:13:17.630 --> 00:13:18.881
Let's get cutting.

00:13:21.133 --> 00:13:23.177
We're scoring this cut
with a razor blade…

00:13:23.260 --> 00:13:24.595
One down, three to go.

00:13:24.678 --> 00:13:26.764
…and smoothing it out with a router,

00:13:27.306 --> 00:13:30.559
to give us a nice, clean edge
as this build unfolds.

00:13:30.643 --> 00:13:34.271
This looks like we're just building
a sign for the Hard Rock Cafe.

00:13:34.355 --> 00:13:35.981
That's what I was thinking.

00:13:36.065 --> 00:13:39.193
Now that we've got
all four body pieces assembled…

00:13:40.402 --> 00:13:42.154
I've got some apple boxes.

00:13:42.238 --> 00:13:46.742
…we'll use apple boxes to hold
them as we install the vertical supports.

00:13:51.622 --> 00:13:55.334
Not only does this structure
give our boatman a place to sit,

00:13:55.417 --> 00:13:58.170
it also creates
a nice, hollow air-filled interior

00:13:58.254 --> 00:13:59.964
to keep the boat light and floaty.

00:14:00.965 --> 00:14:03.676
-Done!
-This one here's already a winner.

00:14:09.348 --> 00:14:10.808
All right. So what are we doing here?

00:14:10.891 --> 00:14:12.768
We're working on the neck of the guitar.

00:14:12.852 --> 00:14:14.895
We got butcher block here to work with.

00:14:15.020 --> 00:14:16.856
Bunch of different species,
some oak and maple.

00:14:16.939 --> 00:14:18.440
Very heavy butcher block.

00:14:18.524 --> 00:14:21.068
We need weight. Buoyancy fun fact.

00:14:22.736 --> 00:14:24.905
Buoyancy fun fact.

00:14:25.531 --> 00:14:27.616
-No! Hold off on the buoyancy fun fact.

00:14:27.700 --> 00:14:29.743
Oops, I'll come back later.

00:14:32.329 --> 00:14:35.374
What we'll do is rip these down
into strips and then glue them together,

00:14:35.457 --> 00:14:37.293
and that big lamination
will become the neck.

00:14:37.376 --> 00:14:39.336
So, the size that they're doing,

00:14:39.420 --> 00:14:43.299
the neck should probably
be roughly about a foot wide?

00:14:43.382 --> 00:14:46.969
About a foot wide. Then we'll figure
out the thickness and length from there.

00:14:47.595 --> 00:14:50.639
We're stacking multiple layers
of butcher block countertops together

00:14:50.723 --> 00:14:53.350
to give us the basic structure
of our guitar neck,

00:14:53.434 --> 00:14:56.478
and then we'll carve everything down
to give it the proper shape.

00:14:56.979 --> 00:14:58.480
Cool. Let's get ripping.

00:15:00.900 --> 00:15:01.901
It's so heavy.

00:15:03.277 --> 00:15:04.653
Very heavy butcher block.

00:15:05.571 --> 00:15:06.488
That's heavy.

00:15:06.572 --> 00:15:08.741
-You got it?
-That's so heavy.

00:15:09.658 --> 00:15:11.327
I can do it with one arm.

00:15:12.578 --> 00:15:13.412
Jimmy!

00:15:13.996 --> 00:15:15.497
What is the concern?

00:15:15.581 --> 00:15:17.541
This is like a 1,000 pounds.

00:15:17.625 --> 00:15:19.501
Graz is concerned it's not gonna float.

00:15:19.585 --> 00:15:20.961
We're building a guitar submarine.

00:15:21.045 --> 00:15:23.881
As long as it's waterproof,
it'll hold over 5,000 pounds.

00:15:24.423 --> 00:15:25.507
Buoyancy fun fact.

00:15:26.091 --> 00:15:29.762
Buoyancy is just the measurement of
an object's ability to float on a fluid.

00:15:29.845 --> 00:15:31.597
You can calculate an object's buoyancy

00:15:31.680 --> 00:15:34.475
by finding the volume of water
that it displaces

00:15:35.601 --> 00:15:37.937
and multiplying it
by the density of the water,

00:15:38.020 --> 00:15:41.649
which, as everybody knows,
is 62.4 pounds per cubic foot,

00:15:41.732 --> 00:15:43.359
and then compare that to total--

00:15:43.442 --> 00:15:45.235
-Nerd. What?
-Nerd.

00:15:46.153 --> 00:15:48.489
-I don't think Graz is--
-No. Just keep going. Yeah

00:15:49.323 --> 00:15:52.952
Look, this boat might be heavy,
but it's also wide and flat,

00:15:53.035 --> 00:15:56.538
which means the water it displaces
is gonna be even heavier.

00:15:56.622 --> 00:16:00.459
And so, because of that,
it's gonna float… probably.

00:16:01.001 --> 00:16:03.796
-Graz and Pat plus the weight of the boat.
-Nerd.

00:16:04.630 --> 00:16:06.757
-That can't be close to 5,000 pounds.
-Nerd.

00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:09.093
All right. Keep doing your math, nerd.

00:16:09.176 --> 00:16:10.010
Nerd.

00:16:11.011 --> 00:16:12.721
I'm just misunderstood.

00:16:14.223 --> 00:16:16.892
I'll trust that Jackman
is right on the math.

00:16:16.976 --> 00:16:19.770
In the meantime,
we're gonna focus on stacking,

00:16:20.729 --> 00:16:21.814
gluing,

00:16:22.731 --> 00:16:26.276
and carving these boards until
they look like an actual guitar neck.

00:16:35.285 --> 00:16:37.496
This is a classic paddle.

00:16:39.248 --> 00:16:40.791
But I'm not classic.

00:16:42.751 --> 00:16:44.712
I'm going to do that the Pat way.

00:16:47.965 --> 00:16:49.091
Let's do that.

00:16:49.675 --> 00:16:53.387
First part is the handle, which I'm gonna
make with that piece of walnut.

00:16:57.933 --> 00:17:01.645
Now, I'm heading over to the band saw
to remove the bulk of the material,

00:17:02.813 --> 00:17:05.858
then I'm going to mount this on the lathe,
and make this round.

00:17:10.070 --> 00:17:11.071
The grinder.

00:17:13.490 --> 00:17:14.408
Hey!

00:17:16.910 --> 00:17:17.995
Oh yes.

00:17:25.210 --> 00:17:27.046
We are laying out the acoustic hole.

00:17:27.129 --> 00:17:30.090
According to our calculations,
it's about 16 inches.

00:17:30.174 --> 00:17:31.550
What a beauty.

00:17:32.384 --> 00:17:35.387
By taking measurements
of a normal guitar and scaling them up,

00:17:35.471 --> 00:17:37.931
we know about where
the sound hole's gonna be,

00:17:38.015 --> 00:17:40.100
but we might wanna make some adjustments.

00:17:40.184 --> 00:17:42.478
The hole may need to be further down.

00:17:42.561 --> 00:17:45.647
So I'll cut out the circle,
we'll lay it out there. See how it goes.

00:17:48.025 --> 00:17:50.652
So Derek just cut out a circle,

00:17:50.736 --> 00:17:52.446
and I think it's an appropriate size.

00:17:52.529 --> 00:17:55.532
I think whatever
Jimmy thinks looks right, is right.

00:17:55.616 --> 00:17:58.619
We'll use this now
as a template to cut the hole.

00:18:04.291 --> 00:18:06.960
-We have a hole.
-This is coming out all right, huh?

00:18:08.879 --> 00:18:10.547
Plywood gives you wings.

00:18:11.340 --> 00:18:14.009
What we have here is…
Derek, would you like to explain?

00:18:14.093 --> 00:18:15.052
Bendy plywood.

00:18:15.135 --> 00:18:16.804
-And what does it do?
-It bends.

00:18:16.887 --> 00:18:17.721
Around?

00:18:17.805 --> 00:18:19.264
Curved surfaces?

00:18:19.348 --> 00:18:21.225
-The side of our guitar.
-Oh.

00:18:23.143 --> 00:18:26.563
This bendy plywood is made
by taking thin strips of fine-grain wood

00:18:26.647 --> 00:18:29.149
and gluing them
with their grains running parallel,

00:18:29.233 --> 00:18:32.528
so that they stay together
while still being flexible.

00:18:32.611 --> 00:18:33.862
It's bendy.

00:18:33.946 --> 00:18:35.989
It does like the name implies.

00:18:36.073 --> 00:18:37.241
It bends.

00:18:37.324 --> 00:18:40.160
First, we'll glue a piece
of the bendy plywood in place…

00:18:40.244 --> 00:18:41.620
-Here on the seam?
-Yep.

00:18:41.703 --> 00:18:43.247
…so we can line it up.

00:18:43.330 --> 00:18:45.165
And then we add a few staples.

00:18:49.503 --> 00:18:52.172
Uhh, okay. Maybe a lot of staples.

00:18:52.256 --> 00:18:53.507
All right.

00:18:53.590 --> 00:18:55.467
And our boat has sides.

00:18:55.551 --> 00:18:58.262
It's gonna give this thing
immediate strength.

00:19:03.142 --> 00:19:04.726
All right. Check it out!

00:19:05.310 --> 00:19:07.563
Wow! What do you got going on here, kid?

00:19:07.646 --> 00:19:09.606
-What do you think?
-Um…

00:19:09.690 --> 00:19:11.066
Your car battery died?

00:19:11.150 --> 00:19:13.485
-We're not jumping my car.
-Okay.

00:19:13.569 --> 00:19:15.571
We are making lightning bolts.

00:19:15.654 --> 00:19:17.322
Let me guess. Lichtenberg?

00:19:17.865 --> 00:19:18.699
Bam!

00:19:18.782 --> 00:19:21.702
Lichtenberg burning is a process
of burning patterns into wood

00:19:21.785 --> 00:19:23.120
using electricity.

00:19:23.203 --> 00:19:27.624
We just cover the wood in conductive paste
and run an electric charge across it.

00:19:27.708 --> 00:19:31.044
The results look like
tiny lightning bolts burned into the wood.

00:19:31.128 --> 00:19:33.797
So electricity plus conductive liquid

00:19:33.881 --> 00:19:36.258
equals lightning bolts in wood.

00:19:36.341 --> 00:19:38.343
-This is electrolytes?
-This is electrolytes.

00:19:38.427 --> 00:19:39.803
-Like Gatorade?
-Exactly.

00:19:40.637 --> 00:19:41.930
But nothing like it.

00:19:42.014 --> 00:19:44.725
-Yeah. No? Okay. You ready?
-I don't think so.

00:19:44.808 --> 00:19:47.269
Three, two, one.

00:19:49.021 --> 00:19:50.147
There it goes.

00:19:54.902 --> 00:19:56.862
Look at that. Fractals.

00:19:57.529 --> 00:19:59.531
Isn't that crazy how it does that?

00:20:09.416 --> 00:20:11.376
Whoo! Look at that.

00:20:11.460 --> 00:20:12.961
Wow. That looks great.

00:20:13.045 --> 00:20:14.588
I think Jayden's gonna like this.

00:20:14.671 --> 00:20:17.841
He asked for lightning bolts,
we gave him lightning bolts.

00:20:17.925 --> 00:20:21.511
Let's go down to the barn, show Jimmy,
and put this thing on the guitar.

00:20:22.596 --> 00:20:24.640
This is what you call
poor man's wood filler.

00:20:24.723 --> 00:20:26.475
Glue and sawdust.

00:20:31.563 --> 00:20:34.691
I'm sanding out all the little bumps,
nicks, banging in all the nails

00:20:34.775 --> 00:20:38.195
because now we're going to cover it
with the final wood for the face.

00:20:38.278 --> 00:20:39.238
Walnut veneer.

00:20:39.321 --> 00:20:42.824
So we'll take this walnut veneer
and put it on the outsides of our boat

00:20:42.908 --> 00:20:43.951
and move on.

00:20:44.034 --> 00:20:45.369
Two-twenty-six.

00:20:45.452 --> 00:20:47.579
There's no need
to make a big thing of this.

00:20:49.414 --> 00:20:52.125
You're gonna make me
make a big thing of this, aren't you?

00:20:52.626 --> 00:20:56.505
All right. Fine. I'll do it,
but only in the form of soft rock.

00:20:56.588 --> 00:20:57.422
Huh?

00:20:59.758 --> 00:21:02.886
So how is veneer made, you ask?

00:21:04.096 --> 00:21:06.265
They take a big, giant razor blade,

00:21:06.348 --> 00:21:08.600
and the editors
are gonna show you right here…

00:21:09.142 --> 00:21:12.229
Take a big razor blade
and put a log against that razor blade,

00:21:12.312 --> 00:21:13.480
and you spin the log.

00:21:13.563 --> 00:21:15.107
Big industrial machinery.

00:21:15.190 --> 00:21:18.777
And they take a log and unroll it
just like a roll of paper towels.

00:21:41.591 --> 00:21:44.803
Most of your overpriced
dining tables have this on top.

00:21:45.554 --> 00:21:46.596
Not real wood.

00:21:48.890 --> 00:21:52.060
This is contact cement.
It's called a dry-mount contact cement.

00:21:52.144 --> 00:21:53.854
Put it on both sides coming together.

00:21:53.937 --> 00:21:55.772
You let both sides dry,

00:21:55.856 --> 00:21:59.693
and then you push it together,
and it stays forever.

00:22:00.277 --> 00:22:03.572
If you put it down wrong, you have to rip
it off and start again with a new piece.

00:22:27.012 --> 00:22:28.180
Walnut, huh?

00:22:28.764 --> 00:22:29.973
It's a veneer.

00:22:30.057 --> 00:22:31.767
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's fancy.

00:22:31.850 --> 00:22:33.477
I, I have a table like this.

00:22:33.560 --> 00:22:36.772
Me and Christina got married,
we bought a table just like this.

00:22:36.855 --> 00:22:38.398
How much you pay for it?

00:22:38.482 --> 00:22:40.734
-A ton.
-Interesting.

00:22:40.817 --> 00:22:42.319
See? What did I tell you?

00:22:42.402 --> 00:22:44.321
Everybody overpays for veneer.

00:22:58.335 --> 00:23:01.296
Jimmy, when you hurt your pinky
in the table saw accident,

00:23:01.380 --> 00:23:03.215
were you still able to play?

00:23:03.298 --> 00:23:05.675
I was despondent about the circumstance.

00:23:05.759 --> 00:23:09.346
I should have kept practicing,
but I used it as an excuse to give up.

00:23:09.429 --> 00:23:11.640
Does it bother you to drink tea at all?

00:23:11.723 --> 00:23:14.768
No, actually, that's perfect
because the pinky doesn't move.

00:23:14.851 --> 00:23:17.270
So when I drink tea,
it's in the perfect position.

00:23:18.021 --> 00:23:20.649
Attention, Jimmy. Children calling.

00:23:21.608 --> 00:23:24.653
Attention, Jimmy.
Time to talk to the kids again.

00:23:24.736 --> 00:23:27.280
-Jeez. Hey. What's up, buddy?
-There he is.

00:23:27.364 --> 00:23:31.660
I just came in to check in.
See how you guys were doing.

00:23:31.743 --> 00:23:34.496
The big, giant guitar is well underway.

00:23:34.579 --> 00:23:37.082
-What are the colors?
It's gonna look like a guitar.

00:23:37.165 --> 00:23:38.250
What did you expect?

00:23:39.000 --> 00:23:40.961
-Touchè. Uh…

00:23:41.044 --> 00:23:43.380
Can it actually function like a guitar?

00:23:43.463 --> 00:23:45.132
Does it actually play music?

00:23:45.757 --> 00:23:47.801
Not at the moment. Why do you ask?

00:23:47.884 --> 00:23:49.428
Because I want it to.

00:23:49.511 --> 00:23:51.680
-Uh-oh!

00:23:53.682 --> 00:23:55.976
Time to face the music.

00:23:56.643 --> 00:23:58.645
You want it to play like a real guitar?

00:23:58.728 --> 00:24:00.397
Yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:03.859
Jayden, you know, we're trying
to make it a legit floating boat.

00:24:03.942 --> 00:24:06.319
Sound isn't really exactly the priority.

00:24:06.403 --> 00:24:07.821
It'll sound good though.

00:24:07.904 --> 00:24:09.906
All right. Yes, we're gonna
have it make sound.

00:24:09.990 --> 00:24:13.076
You got us at the right time.
We can still have it make sound.

00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:13.994
Yay!

00:24:14.077 --> 00:24:16.246
But going forward,
adding the frets and the strings…

00:24:16.788 --> 00:24:18.748
we're gonna keep in mind
that it will really work.

00:24:18.832 --> 00:24:20.500
-Yeah.
-All right.

00:24:20.584 --> 00:24:21.418
Dealio.

00:24:21.918 --> 00:24:23.795
-I'll check in when we're done.
-See you.

00:24:24.379 --> 00:24:27.132
-We gotta make it make music.
-So it's playing music.

00:24:27.215 --> 00:24:30.802
We were always planning on adding
the strings, the frets, the tuning pegs,

00:24:30.886 --> 00:24:33.847
but they were gonna be
purely ornamental, not functional.

00:24:34.347 --> 00:24:37.184
So we're gonna build
tuning pegs that can actually rotate

00:24:37.267 --> 00:24:41.229
and tighten these big, heavy cables enough
to where they will play notes.

00:24:41.313 --> 00:24:42.189
Somewhat.

00:24:42.272 --> 00:24:45.358
And Jackman and Graz
will have to adjust their neck…

00:24:45.442 --> 00:24:48.069
I'm gonna have to reinforce
the structure inside the body a bit.

00:24:48.153 --> 00:24:51.239
…so that it can accommodate
actual playable strings.

00:24:51.323 --> 00:24:53.283
He didn't say
it had to sound good, did he?

00:24:53.366 --> 00:24:55.869
-It just has to make sound.
-Yeah. It just makes sound.

00:24:56.369 --> 00:24:59.539
We've still got a lot of work
to do on the other parts of the build.

00:24:59.623 --> 00:25:01.708
Time to kick it into beast mode.

00:25:03.084 --> 00:25:03.919
Oh.

00:25:06.922 --> 00:25:09.424
Pat's gonna finish
his guitar pick paddles

00:25:09.508 --> 00:25:12.761
with a layer of waterproof epoxy
and some colorful paint.

00:25:19.768 --> 00:25:23.188
I don't know what this does, but I saw it
on the internet, and it looks cool.

00:25:25.398 --> 00:25:26.274
Oh yeah.

00:25:32.656 --> 00:25:33.615
Look at that.

00:25:33.698 --> 00:25:35.075
-It's nice, right?
-I like that one.

00:25:35.158 --> 00:25:38.495
Back on the body, Derek and I
are gonna cut some holes for seats.

00:25:38.578 --> 00:25:40.121
Right now, we've got a guitar raft.

00:25:40.205 --> 00:25:43.416
It won't be a guitar boat
until Pat and Graz have a place to sit.

00:25:46.336 --> 00:25:47.337
Whoo!

00:25:48.046 --> 00:25:50.173
Guys, wanna come over and give this a try?

00:25:50.257 --> 00:25:52.092
-Yeah.
-Help me with my leg.

00:25:52.842 --> 00:25:54.302
-Oh God.
-Woo-hoo!

00:25:56.638 --> 00:25:57.472
How's this?

00:25:57.556 --> 00:25:59.057
You guys look good in it.

00:25:59.140 --> 00:26:02.894
I thought my casket was gonna
look different, but I'm okay with this.

00:26:05.939 --> 00:26:09.526
Finally, Pat is carving
some wooden tuning knobs on the band saw

00:26:09.609 --> 00:26:12.112
so we can actually
tighten the strings on the neck.

00:26:12.195 --> 00:26:16.032
To make it look like metal,
I'm gonna wrap this with chrome vinyl.

00:26:35.385 --> 00:26:37.345
-Nice and smooth.
-The head stock's done.

00:26:37.429 --> 00:26:38.805
-Looks awesome.
-That's good.

00:26:38.888 --> 00:26:40.724
All right. Up next, frets.

00:26:40.807 --> 00:26:44.644
Originally, we were going to
make the frets and strings ornamental,

00:26:44.728 --> 00:26:47.647
but then the strings
would sit flush against the fretboard

00:26:47.731 --> 00:26:48.898
and wouldn't sound good.

00:26:48.982 --> 00:26:50.942
Since Jayden wants
the guitar to make sound,

00:26:51.026 --> 00:26:53.069
we're setting these frets
at precise depths,

00:26:53.153 --> 00:26:56.197
so they'll lift the strings off
the fretboard and let them ring out.

00:26:56.281 --> 00:26:59.534
We'll mark out the locations of the frets.
I'll cut a bunch of grooves here.

00:26:59.618 --> 00:27:04.164
All right. You fret, I'll glue,
and we'll get in a pretty good groove.

00:27:07.667 --> 00:27:09.085
What are you fretting about?

00:27:09.169 --> 00:27:10.837
-Are you done?
-Yeah. I'm done.

00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:11.921
-Good.
-Let's go.

00:27:13.423 --> 00:27:15.383
Put that over on that side.

00:27:15.467 --> 00:27:17.135
There we go. Right here.

00:27:17.218 --> 00:27:19.220
We know
how we're gonna add frets,

00:27:19.304 --> 00:27:21.681
but we still need to figure out
where exactly to put this

00:27:21.765 --> 00:27:23.516
so we'll be able to play a song.

00:27:23.600 --> 00:27:26.478
And you know me,
I'm not just gonna eyeball it.

00:27:26.561 --> 00:27:28.813
I did the math earlier.
I took a screenshot.

00:27:28.897 --> 00:27:30.482
You took a screenshot of math?

00:27:30.565 --> 00:27:32.192
-Yeah.
-Okay.

00:27:32.275 --> 00:27:35.070
That's all the dimensions
of where the frets want to be.

00:27:35.153 --> 00:27:37.322
The fret scale's 173 inches.

00:27:38.073 --> 00:27:42.160
Jackman, you're the only person
I've ever met that makes guitars uncool.

00:27:42.243 --> 00:27:44.788
-Done?
-All right. Let's cut some grooves.

00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:48.124
Jayden wants this to sound like a guitar.

00:27:48.208 --> 00:27:50.293
So we have to get the fret spacing right.

00:27:52.754 --> 00:27:54.547
I'm gonna glue in these steel rods

00:27:55.465 --> 00:27:57.842
while Jackman
cuts the rest of the grooves.

00:27:59.594 --> 00:28:01.137
Since we measured the frets carefully,

00:28:01.221 --> 00:28:03.473
these strings are gonna sit
at the perfect height

00:28:03.556 --> 00:28:05.392
to vibrate freely and make sound.

00:28:06.893 --> 00:28:08.103
Kind of like Jimmy.

00:28:09.354 --> 00:28:11.481
And once the frets are all set in place…

00:28:14.234 --> 00:28:16.903
we'll trim off the edges
so they sit flush with the fretboard.

00:28:18.446 --> 00:28:20.115
-Paul, this looks great.
-Thanks.

00:28:20.198 --> 00:28:23.868
Jackman, this really does.
It looks like a giant guitar neck.

00:28:23.952 --> 00:28:25.954
It's gonna look awesome
when we put strings on it.

00:28:26.037 --> 00:28:28.665
-Well done.
-Let's clamp these while the epoxy cures.

00:28:28.748 --> 00:28:30.375
Then we put the neck on the body.

00:28:30.458 --> 00:28:32.085
-Let's get more clamps.
-All right.

00:28:33.753 --> 00:28:37.132
Nerd! Nerd! Nerd!

00:28:37.924 --> 00:28:39.426
Are you guys ready?

00:28:39.509 --> 00:28:43.430
All hands on deck!
It's time to assemble a giant guitar.

00:28:43.513 --> 00:28:45.306
-Are you ready for this?
-Are you ready?

00:28:45.390 --> 00:28:46.891
-Are you good?
-Yeah.

00:28:52.147 --> 00:28:53.148
Let's see.

00:28:53.982 --> 00:28:56.151
-Oh boy.
-Oh jeez.

00:28:57.277 --> 00:28:59.779
Hang on, guys.
I need the "made a mistake" tool.

00:29:08.329 --> 00:29:10.415
-Let's see if that fits.
Take two.

00:29:11.541 --> 00:29:12.917
Oh, look at that.

00:29:13.001 --> 00:29:14.878
Now that we know the neck fits,

00:29:14.961 --> 00:29:17.589
we can start gluing
the two pieces together.

00:29:17.672 --> 00:29:20.091
-Tell me when. Okay?
-Let's send it.

00:29:21.593 --> 00:29:23.887
Just a little more. Right there.

00:29:25.847 --> 00:29:28.349
The neck is attached to the body.
This is looking sharp.

00:29:28.433 --> 00:29:30.685
Now we gotta work
on putting the strings on.

00:29:30.769 --> 00:29:33.813
We gotta epoxy the bottom.
I gotta install the seats.

00:29:33.897 --> 00:29:35.982
Let's bring it home, boys. Let's go!

00:29:36.065 --> 00:29:38.443
-Bring it home, boys.
-Bring it home, boys.

00:29:41.696 --> 00:29:43.823
Ahoy there, matey!

00:29:46.576 --> 00:29:47.911
Oh, whoo!

00:29:47.994 --> 00:29:49.621
Guitars were made to rock…

00:29:49.704 --> 00:29:50.622
Whoa, it's hot!

00:29:50.705 --> 00:29:52.707
…but ours needs to float as well.

00:29:52.791 --> 00:29:57.879
What I'm doing is pouring epoxy to fill in
all the crevices and potential leak areas.

00:29:58.463 --> 00:30:02.300
So we need to seal the inside
of the guitar body with epoxy resin.

00:30:02.383 --> 00:30:04.427
I just dump it in and let it cure.

00:30:04.511 --> 00:30:07.430
-It's not dripping out, is it?
-There's a screw hole there.

00:30:07.514 --> 00:30:10.767
When it drips through, it'll cure
in the hole, then it's patched.

00:30:12.560 --> 00:30:17.357
Derek has to cut the Lichtenberg figures
he and Graz made into angled segments…

00:30:17.440 --> 00:30:20.109
I'm gonna cut 12 of them at 15 degrees.

00:30:20.193 --> 00:30:23.696
…to create the rosette design
that's gonna go around the sound hole.

00:30:25.490 --> 00:30:26.741
It looks good.

00:30:26.825 --> 00:30:29.327
Jayden wanted lightning bolts.
He should be happy with this.

00:30:30.411 --> 00:30:34.082
The dot inlays are traditionally
made of pearl or other fine materials,

00:30:34.916 --> 00:30:37.293
but we're using wooden dowels
to mark our fretboard.

00:30:38.628 --> 00:30:40.547
Since Jayden wants this thing to play,

00:30:40.630 --> 00:30:43.967
we need to install a nut
that we cut from two-inch thick plastic,

00:30:45.760 --> 00:30:48.763
a bridge made from a pipe
welded to a metal plate…

00:30:51.182 --> 00:30:54.018
and of course, a set of six strings
made from steel cable

00:30:55.520 --> 00:30:57.480
that we'll run from tuning pegs,

00:30:57.564 --> 00:31:00.650
down the neck, over the bridge,
and through the body.

00:31:02.485 --> 00:31:04.153
-Ready?

00:31:04.237 --> 00:31:05.196
You hear that?

00:31:05.280 --> 00:31:06.823
That's beautiful.

00:31:09.117 --> 00:31:11.244
And to finish everything off,

00:31:12.704 --> 00:31:16.207
we're gonna build two seats
out of beautiful, burgundy marine vinyl.

00:31:16.291 --> 00:31:17.458
Looks like a roadster.

00:31:17.542 --> 00:31:20.169
Nothing but the best
for Graz and Pat's tushies.

00:31:20.253 --> 00:31:22.422
-We'll make some beautiful music with it.
-Oh yeah.

00:31:23.840 --> 00:31:24.757
Looks good.

00:31:24.841 --> 00:31:26.718
Hopefully this thing is gonna float.

00:31:27.969 --> 00:31:31.014
Man, we guitar-dly got it done in time.

00:31:33.141 --> 00:31:34.392
Guys, fantastic work.

00:31:34.475 --> 00:31:37.562
Everybody's talents
are really well showcased in this one.

00:31:37.645 --> 00:31:39.230
-That's all we can do.
-All right.

00:31:39.939 --> 00:31:40.940
It's beautiful.

00:31:52.744 --> 00:31:54.495
Music and boats go hand in hand.

00:31:54.579 --> 00:31:56.331
-Yeah.
-I'm sorry. What?

00:31:56.414 --> 00:31:59.167
Music, boats. They go hand in hand.

00:31:59.250 --> 00:32:01.586
-You know what's music to my ears?
-What's that?

00:32:01.669 --> 00:32:03.671
Us being done with this episode.

00:32:03.755 --> 00:32:05.048
Let's do the reveal.

00:32:07.008 --> 00:32:08.509
All right. Let's get Jayden up here.

00:32:08.593 --> 00:32:10.845
See if he appreciates
what we've built for him.

00:32:11.888 --> 00:32:13.640
-Jayden!
-Hello!

00:32:13.723 --> 00:32:15.725
-How are you, buddy?
-Really good.

00:32:15.808 --> 00:32:18.770
Okay, Jayden.
Pop quiz. Why are we here?

00:32:18.853 --> 00:32:20.355
Yeah. Why?

00:32:20.438 --> 00:32:22.941
Because I wanted you to build me a guitar.

00:32:23.024 --> 00:32:24.067
A guitar.

00:32:24.150 --> 00:32:27.278
So we built a giant 500-pound guitar,

00:32:27.362 --> 00:32:28.446
but that wasn't enough.

00:32:28.529 --> 00:32:31.824
I wanted it to float on the water!

00:32:31.908 --> 00:32:35.244
You wanted it to become a boat
that has to float.

00:32:35.328 --> 00:32:36.412
Is it gonna float?

00:32:36.496 --> 00:32:38.081
Of course, it's gonna float.

00:32:38.164 --> 00:32:38.998
Ehh…

00:32:39.082 --> 00:32:40.625
Come on. Can I see it already?

00:32:40.708 --> 00:32:42.835
-Do you really wanna see this thing?
-Yes!

00:32:42.919 --> 00:32:44.545
You're approaching a three.

00:32:45.129 --> 00:32:47.799
Get close to a nine,
maybe we'll open those garage doors.

00:32:47.882 --> 00:32:50.468
Fine, fine, fine. Fine. Fine, fine, fine.

00:32:50.551 --> 00:32:51.886
Uh-oh. There we go.

00:32:51.970 --> 00:32:53.096
Jayden style.

00:32:56.975 --> 00:32:58.768
All right. You earned it.

00:32:58.851 --> 00:33:00.019
Guys, hit it!

00:33:12.281 --> 00:33:13.866
That is so cool!

00:33:15.284 --> 00:33:16.661
I love it! I love it!

00:33:20.665 --> 00:33:21.833
Oh my goodness!

00:33:21.916 --> 00:33:23.292
It's so cool!

00:33:25.586 --> 00:33:28.965
Jayden, what you're looking at
is 19 feet of guitar excellence

00:33:29.048 --> 00:33:30.508
that's gonna float on the water.

00:33:30.591 --> 00:33:31.759
That's humongous!

00:33:31.843 --> 00:33:33.970
Look at the guitar body.
Me and Derek built it.

00:33:34.053 --> 00:33:35.805
It's made out of layers of plywood,

00:33:35.888 --> 00:33:38.433
It's beautifully veneered
with walnut on the sides

00:33:38.516 --> 00:33:39.767
and maple on the top.

00:33:39.851 --> 00:33:41.185
That's a lot of wood!

00:33:41.269 --> 00:33:42.937
Hey, Jayden. See this ring here?

00:33:43.021 --> 00:33:44.731
You wanted your lightning bolts?

00:33:44.814 --> 00:33:47.066
Me and Graz burnt these with electricity.

00:33:47.150 --> 00:33:48.151
That's awesome!

00:33:48.234 --> 00:33:51.070
The neck is laminated
from butcher block countertops

00:33:51.154 --> 00:33:55.366
that's oak and maple, with a fretboard
made of ash and actual metal frets.

00:33:55.450 --> 00:33:57.910
It is 8 feet long
plus 2 feet for the headstock.

00:33:57.994 --> 00:34:01.122
Did you see your name
on the headstock? It says "Jayden."

00:34:01.205 --> 00:34:04.792
When they find me and Pat's bodies,
your name will be all over the evidence.

00:34:06.335 --> 00:34:08.171
You can't have a boat without a paddle.

00:34:08.254 --> 00:34:10.840
If you see these two
beautiful paddles made by Pat.

00:34:10.923 --> 00:34:14.761
The handles are made of black walnut,
and I've carved it on the lathe.

00:34:14.844 --> 00:34:16.679
And as for the pick itselves,

00:34:16.763 --> 00:34:21.934
I used plywood, and I did an epoxy pour
with two and three colors. I mixed it.

00:34:22.018 --> 00:34:24.312
The picks look so cool!

00:34:24.395 --> 00:34:26.606
-It looks incredible.
-But does it play?

00:34:26.689 --> 00:34:28.816
-Want to hear something?
-Yes!

00:34:38.659 --> 00:34:41.079
It warms my heart. It's so beautiful.

00:34:41.162 --> 00:34:43.372
I bet you wanna
see this thing in the water.

00:34:43.456 --> 00:34:44.415
-Don't you?
-Yeah.

00:34:44.499 --> 00:34:47.210
Jayden, be honest.
Do you think this is gonna float?

00:34:47.293 --> 00:34:49.754
There's only one way to find out.

00:34:49.837 --> 00:34:51.089
You heard him, guys.

00:34:54.383 --> 00:34:56.344
You guys okay back there?

00:35:10.608 --> 00:35:11.526
Oh, jeez!

00:35:12.777 --> 00:35:14.862
You guys ready? Let's get Jayden up.

00:35:15.947 --> 00:35:18.491
What's up, buddy?
Can you see where we are?

00:35:18.574 --> 00:35:19.617
Yeah!

00:35:19.700 --> 00:35:21.661
And I see the boat in the back.

00:35:21.744 --> 00:35:24.163
It's actually floating!

00:35:24.247 --> 00:35:27.458
It's one thing to have the boat float,
but it's a different thing

00:35:27.542 --> 00:35:30.419
to have a bearded Canadian
and a little, hairy man climb into it.

00:35:30.503 --> 00:35:31.754
And that's about to happen.

00:35:31.838 --> 00:35:32.880
Yes!

00:35:32.964 --> 00:35:34.423
Are you two nitwits ready?

00:35:34.507 --> 00:35:36.175
Permission to step aboard?

00:35:36.259 --> 00:35:37.093
Granted.

00:35:39.804 --> 00:35:42.557
Make sure it's not slippery.
Make sure you don't slip.

00:35:42.640 --> 00:35:43.641
I got it.

00:35:43.724 --> 00:35:45.935
-Uh-oh!
-Whoo!

00:35:46.769 --> 00:35:48.771
-Perfect.
-All right. Let's see!

00:35:49.856 --> 00:35:52.316
-Mr. Pat Lap, your paddle.
Thank you!

00:35:52.817 --> 00:35:55.069
All right, guys. Take it away!

00:36:01.284 --> 00:36:02.577
It works!

00:36:04.120 --> 00:36:06.414
-Pat, this is kind of nice, right?
-Yeah.

00:36:12.962 --> 00:36:14.380
I think it's working.

00:36:22.805 --> 00:36:24.348
Jayden, what do you think?

00:36:25.183 --> 00:36:29.604
Awesome! I can't believe
there's an actual guitar boat.

00:36:29.687 --> 00:36:31.898
Hey, Jackman, Derek!
Do I look cool?

00:36:31.981 --> 00:36:33.566
Yeah. Real cool.

00:36:34.817 --> 00:36:38.779
Jayden, there's one more thing
we got for you. Pat, hit it.

00:37:07.266 --> 00:37:08.601
-Whoa!
Whoa!

00:37:20.238 --> 00:37:21.822
That was beautiful, Pat.

00:37:21.906 --> 00:37:25.034
Jayden, I think we're done here.
Any final words?

00:37:25.117 --> 00:37:27.245
Thank you for building me a guitar boat!

00:37:27.328 --> 00:37:29.705
You're very welcome.
And I'll see you later.

00:37:30.206 --> 00:37:32.166
-Bye, buddy.
-See you, Jayden.

00:37:32.250 --> 00:37:33.626
I knew you'd love this one.

00:37:33.709 --> 00:37:36.796
Congrats. Give ourselves
a round of applause. You did so well.

00:37:38.798 --> 00:37:39.840
All right, guys.

00:37:41.217 --> 00:37:42.551
I'll see you at the workshop.

00:37:42.635 --> 00:37:44.053
-Wait.
-What about the boat?

00:37:44.136 --> 00:37:45.221
Can you pull us in?

00:37:45.304 --> 00:37:46.847
You got the rope. You're good.
