  • Wanted to make a cedar strip canoe so gave it a whirl. 13' solo canoe. Turned out ok but I did make a few mistakes. I think it will suffice for my first canoe. And for those who don't like the music, push the mute button. Thanks for watching.

    Cedar is such a beautiful wood. It can sit there for years, and I mean years, and can still be used as it was new. Good luck to you.

    One of the very few times the music isn't an assault on the senses. What a nice change.

    Beautiful canoe! You did a great job. I can imagine the pride you feel while out on the water.

    I'm just an 18 year old boy with a dream, also who is so inspired by this... It's my dream to craft a nice cedar strip canoe. This is very inspirational and a crucial first step in forming a cedar strip canoe. What an art it is... I can't wait.

    Great job! It looks very sharp. I'm just about to start making my second cedar stripper and to anyone thinking of doing this I say go for it. I'm a geologist, not a builder. I'm the least handyman man around but I did it! It was fun, and like I said, I'm doing another one. Jump into it- it's a blast!

  • @justinthomson7877
    @justinthomson7877 8 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Well done, I especially like the fact you made the paddle as well. A simple thing comparatively speaking, but to me it speaks to your attention to detail.

      There are a few suggestions for constructing boats:
      Give yourself plenty time.
      take advantage of ready made boat plans.
