But, the most important thing is....you're building!!!

: Yabbut... My shop space is really really small... I don't even really have to
: be all that organized 'cause I can see anywhere from anywhere else in the
: room! The only problems arise when I hide tools in kayak recesses that
: then get stripped over ;)

: Hmm. Well, when I get rid of those oil tanks and the furnace and replumb and
: pour a slab, I'll have to think about doing that ;) Ah, heck, the idea is
: just to make one little ol' kayak. 'Cause, no one ever builds two,
: right????

: Oof!

: Description of photo: Hull of a Night Heron, uneven dirt floor - some spaces
: covered with coal sacks or tarps or sacks of coal, fieldstone walls (they
: drip when it rains), two big oil tanks in back, the furnace on the right,
: strips are way up on the left (supported on that 2x4 and the top of the
: shelves) and on the shelves and on the floor behind the kayak (out of
: sight). Note the red apron hanging from the plumbing - to remind me not to
: smack my head every time that I walk by! The tip of the kayak extends far
: enough that I have to squeeze around it through the hole between the oil
: tanks. The tail of the kayak extends far enough that I have to contort
: around it or go up a step of the stairs to get around it.

: I don't believe that I will be varnishing it here ;) but I might glass it...
: How explosive are resin fumes?

Not really.

Wait 'til summer and varnish outside...maybe under a visqueen tent to keep bugs off?

Shawn
: Cheers!
