Hi Thomas, big subject... you need a mold to put the strips around. Most builders use temporary plywood pieces mounted on a "strongback". You could probably use other things too (like an existing boat) but I couldn't recommend it. Once it's stripped, it's simply a matter of fiberglassing... and a few intermediate steps. You will want to read one of the books on the subject before you start. Check out Nick's book at http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/Book/index.html
