YouTube link Darn. That looks like hard work! I can just imagine the blisters.
Notice in Part 2, they discuss the optional straight or pointy end. I think I would prefer a resin or laser cut model.  No. It's not really a bateau. Just a very heavy canoe. |

John, The boats are done. I expect them next Monday or Tuesday. I'll try to get some out to you then. Let's see some pix of the Associators. I'm anxious to see what you've done. Roger tells me that you are an excellent painter. From what I've seen of your work, he is correct.
Looking forward to seeing them. |

"Charming" videos! ;) No really, these are amazing project videos (thanks Winston) – and historically by one man, a two week accomplishment of no doubt extremely hard work. Yes, give me one out of resin, and something small enough I can twirl around with the fingers instead…..:) |

It looks like too much work to justify the payoff. |

You and your pointy ended bateaux… Harrumph. I want to play my ancestors so I can burn them… And so I can explain to you the mysteries and the differences in small boat construction… Eric |
