Though I paddle a "glass" kayak, I've always been intrigued with the hand-made wooden variety. There's just something about a home-built's lines and wood grain, and a builder's pain and sweat embedded in every square inch. For me [and I suspect for most of you folks who have built one], it extends into the realm of art. Anyhow, without wasting too much of everyone's time, I recently decided to feature images of wooden home-builts on my web page. So, if you have one, and wouldn't object to my putting a pic of it up on the web, send me a jpg in the 30-50k range and I'll include it in the set. If you don't mind, please include your name and hometown, and any other details about your boat you'd like known (e.g, hours to build, wood type, etc.). I'll include as much of the info as I can. Later! Jim Tynan Pike Road AL http://home.att.net/~kayakbound kayakbound_at_att.net P.S. And who knows -- maybe one day, when I have an ample-sized shop/garage, I just might "create" my own! Hmmmm -- another kayak worthy of being stored in the living room!!! <<g>> *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************
