If it were me I'd cut those knots out of the strips (cut strips on either side of the knots) and then butt joint the strips on the forms as needed.

Epic weather story!

My favorite demonstration of the hitch is shown in this video.

Yes!!!! This is what I use for securing the fixed end of a ridge line! You can put the line as high as you can (e.g. toss it or work the line up the trunk) and then tie the hitch low; it cinches up to the top just by pulling the standing end. Leave a long tag end and it releases with a simple...

Exped Megamat Lite, wide, and now coupled with an Exped Chair Kit, which I use to make it into a lounge chair for reading in the tent and a slightly raised back for sleeping (I hate sleeping totally flat on my back).

Hmmmm, Mike's got that aluminum powder already so worth a try!

Just run the cut aluminum gunnel through your industrial extruder to bring it back to full length.

"Tall Trees, Tough Men (A Vivid, Anectdotal History of Logging and Log-Driving in New England)" by Robert Pike. Very entertaining and informative.

We now return you to your regular J stroke vs. Goon Stroke programming.

And just like that, this video comes out from Paddling Magazine...

I've long suspected you are operating a chop shop and trafficking in hot canoes out of that so-called workshop of yours. How else to explain the endless parade of canoes passing through it, often leaving with their hulls repainted different colors and customized to the point where the true...

Probably a pitch stroke.

Seems I've stirred up a hornets' nest. I did not know the love of the J-stroke ran so deep.

Some folks are sensitive to cedar dust. Suggest you wear a mask. Sorry to get political. ;)

This class (sponsored by my local canoe club) was three hours long. I ended up being the only student.

Care to elaborate? I really don't know a thing about them.

Sounds like the two tubers were sharing one tube. They would have little or no chance of steering to shore in that kind of flow and probably didn't see the dam until it was way too late. I'm guessing the paddleboarders in the group were not experienced, either. Sad. Surprised this was not...

Yes, you are describing exactly what this guy was showing me. He insisted that the extra lift (before the pry) is how ACA wants its certified instructors to teach it. I don't get it either.
