Lots of photos!

So here's my finished, newest handplane - hanging to let the final hot coat dry. super pumped to take it out and see how the fin feels

we had a homemade pizza night the other night with cameron. Everyone's came out better than you could imagine!

On saturday, i found out about this wooden boat building company doing a demo of their boats in newport beach. this company designs and makes boat building kits for DIYers to buy and build their own boat! seems pretty awesome. So this company just had about 20 to 30 different boats for people to try out, for free, and get pumped on the boats. needless to say, i'm pumped. the photo above was this crazy skinny long round kayak/canoe style boat i took out, it was fast!

here's a standard kayak i took out for a spin


the first boat we took out, mel and i tried this skiff. it was pretty fun just being out rowing around in this bay area

cameron trying out a kayak similar to one that i took out

another of cameron

land ahoe!!!


cutie

this is a shot of the skiff we took out


here's some of their standup paddleboards and a kneeling paddleboard on the end. they were pretty sweet to try out!

rower?


i took out one similar to these guys. they're fast and wobbly and awesome!

this guy brought his own boat down to display. it was insanely awesome looking


this little one looked awesome, and it is collapsible - the front end detaches so you can store it in a smaller space. it was about 8 feet long and only 60 lbs. this is what i wanna make

here's a kayak we took out too. it was awesome! i talked with the guys a ton on how they got into boatbuilding and with this company and just sat there and dreamed of working for a company like this...
