Re: Hey Now
Well, work and life with 2 kids has made this a slow go. But it looks like I will have the afternoon to sort out all my tools and supplies, after that the work can begin.

Re: Hey Now
Well after digging around the bookshelves here in the shop I managed top find about half a dozen books on Small woodcraft building, including a very well used copy of Canoecraft. Found a lot of old handwritten notes I made scattered throughout. I began clearing out space, just to start, moved out a ...

Re: Hey Now
Ok gotta learn the photo posting bit again. So here it is in the shop from a few months ago. Shop is pretty crowded now with other projects (Pinball machines is what I have been into the last while) so once things are cleared out should be ready to go. There is a very long and emotional story behind...

Hey Now
Hi Bear Mountain, It has been some time since I have been here. Thought I would see what is going on. I have seen that there seems to be more of an interest in building these days, Ron Swanson and all. I have completed 2 Bear Mountain Cedar Strips, a Kayak and restored an antique Adirondack guideboa...

Had a Bad Day
Have you guys ever had a day where things just go wrong. Like you end up with a pile of fibreglass and epoxy crumpled up on the shop floor. Where you were glassing the inside and the cloth moved around so much, and it got worse and worse as you worked it, that things were just not going well. Ever h...

Today I rough cut my shear lines using a dremel saw. Marked the line out in red crayons. A bit of planing and sanding will get those ship shape. Pulled about 2/3 rds of the staples- my hand is sore now. Did a bit of fairing with a rabbit plane and spokeshave. Once the fairing is done, sanding will b...
