In Response To: Tools: Recommendations? (Patrick North)

I wouldn't use a spokeshave, but it might be my poor workmanship with one.
I thought it was the tool with its very short area of contact with the work piece.
Should make it easy to use on tight curves, if you have the control, but a kayak is not typically that tight.

What did you make and how much did it weight?
I'd like more interesting wood, but wouldn't like the extra weight - what I believe would be the extra weight.
