: Foxy trick! did you take any picture?

I probably did, but I can't find it now. I may have to revisit that project. Got a couple of teens who may be starting on building kayaks with their father. The dad wants a project he can work on when he gets to see his sons (messy split up).
I figured if I had 3 sets of frames and enough pre-ripped chine stock they could assemble the frames in a weekend or two, and skin them the next week. Another weekend to make paddles and then they can go out throughout the summer.
I'll get some recent pix of how it goes.
