In Response To: Shop: size of shop (Andreas Heckwolf)

I build my guillemot in a spare bedroom. The kayak was actualy a little too long and stuck out the door a little. I would never do it again. Every time i wanted to lay a strip on the other side of the kayak i had to crawl under it. Then i realized i left the glue on the other side and would have to crawl back under then back again. So after 300 hours of crawling back and forth under the kayak it is done but could have been done in 50 hours less if the work space was bigger. Good luck:)

It's not the size...it's the way you use it.
