Hey Joey, real nice,thanks. Dave.

Looks good Joey.

Was it fruit and nut , cream filled or peanut butter?

Hey Joey, back in 2006 I drove flatbed for TMC," to much chrome", for awhile and hauled several loads of plywood out of a plant in Mississippi. It was awful looking stuff, all dimensions in every stack. I strapped it down and carried it to Oklahoma to a BIG place where they built storage sheds...

When I was a kid back in Delaware,"when it was still a great place to live", we use to chunk dirt clods all the time at each other and other things. Got whipped for it too sometimes. Dave.

Welcome aboard. Dave.

This scare is just more of the news and the left trying to take out Trump. Doctor says this virus is lung specific and if you drink some warm liquids of any sort while out and about it will wash the virus into your stomach where it can't survive. Just carry your travel coffee mug with you.

Wow Andy, really nice. Dave.

Looks real good to me. Dave.

Thanks Seedtick, I think there was less grain or maybe it ran out on the one of the board I had split in two pieces for the sides. The splits occurred on the same end of the board which was in the same end of the boat. I patched on the inside of the boat with 1/4 ply," I'll try and get pics", I...

Good questions Jack, I do know that you can steam wood to bend it. For example ox bows. A straight piece of rounded wood that is bent into a u shape using steam.

Hey Mr. Bee, the wood was good and dry, I think it must have been the way the grain ran through the boards and maybe they were too thin for the stress. The rest of my planks are 1/2 inch thick and I'll see how that works out on the next boat. Dave.

I had to change the center form so the beam is now thirty four inches wide. Seems the cypress plank I had split in two pieces for the sides developed stress cracks. Probably because the planks were now only 3/8 inches wide and the way the grain ran through them. I've glued patches on the inside...

Hey Bee, I'm still working on my pirouge, every whip stich that is, hope to be done before spring. Dave.

Thanks for the history, I'm glad this site happened. Dave.

Mr. Bee, Looks real good!

Merry Christmas to you all!! Dave.

Went to the Dermatologist about ten years ago with spots on my left temple. It wasn't malingant cancer, but cancer none the less. Some spots on my arms since then. Went twice a year at first. Now the doc has me come every other year. This ain't nothing to mess with. Hats and sunscreen now.

Alright!!

Hey Mr. Bee, I like your projects, thanks. I have a question on securing the cloth. Can you use oil base paint to adhere the cloth to the wood or do you have to use glue first? Dave.
