: It's a rainy Sunday morning... still in my pajamas. Anyway, it's been a while
: since I posted a picture of what I'm up to. I guess there's not much to
: see but I have been doing an inlay along the inside coaming lip of my
: double paddle canoe. The idea is: accessories can bolt into the holes
: along the inlay pattern. I sponged it down to get an idea of how it will
: look. The downside of doing a pattern like this is it takes about a month
: to complete; the upside is you are doing joinery every day and you start
: to get good at it and start to really enjoy it.

Hey Chip,

Your craftmanship is to be commended, but, even more so - your patiences!! Do you have a launch date set? We (and I'm sure you as well) look forward to seeing her in the water!

Happy Building.

Charles.
