    Work Shop Ideas

    I'm looking at a similar project. Found a local guy that nothing but sheds. For $4k I can have a shed your size with a shingle roof, doors on each end, and a couple windows. I'd have to paint it myself or plop down another $500. Thought about building myself from a kit but I just don't have the...

    NUCANOE

    You might want to think about a square back or small jon boat. At 42" wide, it's not going to get much more stable for a paddling craft. Can you provide more details about which model and your paddling conditions?

    Well if Jack was there when fire was discovered, I'll take credit for tribal canoe designs. :mrgreen:

    BS 6566 Joubert

    Re: BS 6566 Joubart BS 6566 is a less quality version of the BS1088 standard. The outer plies are allowed to be thinner than 1088. 1088 standard dictates almost equal thickness plies throughout. Typically 6566 face grades are b and bb where as 1088 are typically a and aa. But that's not always...

    Interesting........

    I'll do ya one better. Romney didn't get one.... not one, single, solitary vote in Cleavland. No one in the entire city of 400k people. I find that very hard to believe. Please read the article and see the map. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/odd-rom ... 9-in-ohio/

    Brining

    As a "Thanksgiving Warm Up", I'm brining turkey breast overnight. Tomorrow I'll smoke it for about 3 hours at 220 and then finish it by slow cooking in the oven. Now the last time I had brined turkey was Christmas 2 years ago (which I did not cook) and I got violently ill. Hoping for a better...

    Quetico

    I think a 17' x 22" Quetico would be quite similar to that design.

    End Of The World Anti-Gravity Party

    My 14 year old daughter is particularly worried about Dec 2012 for some reason. Must be a high school thing. I bet her $1 that the world would not end. She finally realized that if I lose, there's no need to pay her. There may be hope for future generations. :lol:

    To glass or not glass

    Style of weave matters as well. For a weave with a high "density" and still conform well to tight corners, look at 4 or 8 harness satin weave. Also known as "crowfoot" weave. It's almost an axial type cloth and can handle a tight radius. But there's a catch: The weave is so dense that it's...

    Quetico

    it will be up on the site soon. I believe Rodger said (in another post) it came in just under 40 pounds using 3mm ply. She'll handle up to 250 on board just fine.

    Quetico

    Good feedback. I'll make a note of that in the plans. Perhaps add another optional bulkhead about 8" forward.

    How's the leg/foot room behind the forward bulkhead?

    Oh didn't he tell you all? It won't ever see the water. It's just a wall hanger.
