In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: My Building error and where clothing (Lewis Brackett)

: I copied a design I saw on line with a V-Bottom of about 15 degrees
: :( This made the kayak so unstable I had to attach outriggers to
: the sides.......
: moral of the story is build with a flat bottom !!!!!!!!

: On the up side, you can make great outriggers with that 4 inch
: diameter plastic.sewer pipe.. you put the 90 degree elbow on
: each end with a cap on the top.

: Btw, where can I find cheap kayak clothing on line ???

Have I got this straight: you "copied" a design, then used "sewer pipe" to make "great" outriggers. Now the subject is clothing, and you are asking us about "cheap"!? Holy mackerel.
