    "Is Gemma a normal woman?" No, she's an absolutely extraordinary woman! 😍
  • @jeffreyoldham55
    So cool to see the White Ensign flying above Sarinda! Curly and his shipmates of ML1392 would be proud.
  • After my divorce, working as a woman contractor, I was thrilled with the tools my kids(3) gave me. Now that I'm in my 60's, kinda retired, they call me to use those tools at their homes. You guys are great! Enjoying watching!
  • @carltontweedle5724
    Nice of the Navy to let you fly the White Ensign. The boat is close to getting some of it's deck on seems like an age, must seem longer to you.
  • @rickswanberg4995
    Not to be a "Safety Sally" but, You should not use the miter gauge with the rip fence as you did at 11:20 in. The cut off can bind between the blade and fence and shoot back towards the operator. Clamp a scrap of wood to the rip fence short of the blade so there is extra space between the blade and the fence for the cutoff and it can't bind.

    My wife would be thrilled to get a tool for a gift, hell she married one.

    Thanks to God for D-day and the thousands who laid down their lives in the struggle against tyranny, and the preservation of freedom.
  • @GatoLand
    A man in love always gives tools for his wife, it is romantic and above all practical. Congratulations Gemma, greetings from Madrid, Spain.

  • Been watching since the beginning, and I can’t WAIT to see the deck go on! Such a hugh milestone! Great teaser for the next episode BTW.
  • @noelbowerman1562

  • @robinday2392
    Honestly looking fantastic, you've done so much in a few weeks.Incredibly impressed. Just keep doing what your doing and now I'm a full member of the channel finally. Big up too Gemma and Simon.Amazing couple x
  • @duaneayers6117
    It's looking great 👍. Good thing that the wind didn't blow on y'all that day while transporting 4x8 sheets of plywood.
  • @johnbazaar8440
    It would REALLY suck if you dropped the hammer in the drink. 😁 I loved Gemma’s “WTF are you doing?“ look at the beginning of the video. You’re doing a great job putting this historic piece back together. Can’t wait to see you motoring on the seas.
  • @ladyfaith9347
    Many years ago I’d have been delighted with a chop saw. Now I’m happy when he washes up 😂
  • @infour44
    Started watching during lockdown in AU and NZ. Have now cycled by many times IRL. Getting way ahead I know but I can imagine a day when there’s a brass band playing a proper RN/Veterans detail, champers, beer from Brimstage and so on. Brilliant story/job unfolding.
  • @VicenteCorrochano
    Simon is so romantic, a table saw. LOL great job everyone, ROB is the best, enjoy and have a cold one to celebrate
