My last post was supposed to be a video !!! After fighting with it for over two hours, I give up. Instead of a video, you will have to make do with still photos.

Finishing up the deck

It's been three weeks since my last post. I have been working hard and making good progress. The Guillemot deck is almost done. I have spent a lot of time building a strong back for the Petrel at the same time as working on the Guillemot. I also spent a lot of time building a dust collection system and getting it hooked up to all of my power tools.

This photo is supposed to be a video. I guess we will see if it is or not.

deck progress


I have made good progress but it does not look like it in the photos. My deck pattern took a long time but I got it done. Now that I have if finished I have changed my mind about how it should look. So I will cut a portion of it away and change part of the pattern. It will take me a few more hours of work but I think it will be worth it in the long run.

I met some kayak builders on the web and they came over to look at my kayaks. Rod and John both liked the man cave and the kayaks. Rod is a pilot so we did not run out of things to talk about.
