I began to work on the Robert Morris inspired Canadian Canoe. It will be made from full length pine, unfortunately not cedar. I guess I will need to drive to a coast to get some cedar!
I have added a link from my kayak page on the building process. Today's accomplishment was bending the 1.5 x 1.5 inch sticks that will become the 4 pieces of the gunwales. I had to extend my steamer for this task.
Below is a picture of all the weight I had to put on the sticks to keep them bent after steaming. The weight includes a planer, a trolling battery and a tractor battery!
The link is to the new building page.
