spalm,
Beautiful looking canoe. We have a guy in our Kansas City branch that also builds canoes.
Due to time constraints with the 'boss lady", kids, work and the house, I just don't have the time to go downstairs and spend hours cutting out wood for my boats. Three years olds make that tough to do. For years I've wanted to build a cnc router but never have until now, well still gathering parts though. I figure that I could set everything up, cut parts and bring the parts upstairs to assemble while still watching the little one. Sounds good in theory though.
Pictures, pictures, pictures everybody wants pictures. I don't have a digital camera but there are pictures of one of my boats on the web. The C.S.S. Albemarle, radio controlled, 1/32 scale (3/8"=1') scratch built, 60" long, weighs 50 lbs., twin screws and over 5000 rivets in her, YES I said 5000.
