@Rabbit - is that the strip canoe you mentioned building in another thread? That's beautiful! I haven't seen many proper canoes in Australia, and that one's an exceptional example. Nice work.Originally Posted by Rabbit

Sorry for the detour FW...

Well if you blokes don’t hijack it it just means that I have to and I’m already so very busy
That’s said it really is a beautiful canoe. Another project I would gladly have a crack at given money time space etc.

Used to paddle in a strip canoe my mate built. Went through some pretty good white water with it!

Many (many) years ago I was involved in rescue boats and helo's. One of the boats I crewed was of timber construction. Every other boat was fibreglass. The sign below hung in the shed and I think it applies equally to guitars:
