    Varnishing technique

    Couldn't you spray it? You would have the whole canoe done in 5min, and then another coat the next day.

    Ford confirms Ranger, Bronco, will return 2019

    I have an '09 Tacoma with 190,000km, 4wd, leather, back up camera. I maintain it myself and plan to keep it going for another 10-15 years or until the axle falls off. I never did want the back up camera and leather but I bought it used and it came with all those things. Now, I wouldn't go back...

    Here's a canoe video to remind you what summer is like

    Yes it is. I edited out a whole bunch - we shot film nearly every day over 10 days and whittled it down to 11 minutes. Now that I've had the video for awhile I would like to go back, shorted the doggy cam footage and lengthen the footage of me pulling the canoe through the stream, and a few...

    Here's a canoe video to remind you what summer is like

    Glad you liked the video, it was a lot of fun to make it. Re: dog cam - I just strapped the camera into his backpack so it wasn't exactly sophisticated. I find that for teaching my dog things that I should break them in early - for example with the canoe I just lay it in the yard for a few...

    Here's a canoe video to remind you what summer is like

    The whole country (Canada, that is) is in the midst of a cold snap (-30C in Winnipeg this morning). So here's a video my wife and I made this summer during a 10 day trip in Quetico in August, to remind us that summer is pretty much the best thing ever. https://youtu.be/vM7rBAkNNPA Warning...

    Canoetripping.net Fund Raiser

    Wow, that is quite the history. Condolences to all involved. Admittedly - Robin doesn't seem to me to be the type of guy to just go and start up a canoeing message board, so now it all makes sense. :rolleyes:

    ​Quadrenial/Massive shop cleaning

    Holy Cow is right! Any time you want to come up to Canada and do mine too Mike I'd be happy to let you stay in the basement. We could probably even feed you once or twice.

    Ethical dilemma

    Often these internet dealers ARE small brick and mortar shops, just in another province or state. I just bought some stuff from one in Minnesota because I couldn't find what I was looking for here in Winnipeg for reasons stated above. From a canoeist perspective, a lot of the stuff we buy is...

    Missouri Breaks in Montana, June 12-18, 2016

    Cool video. I'm reading right now a biography on Lewis and Clark, and in the book they are roughly right where you guys were. And I've never seen that terrain before, so that was pretty neat.

    Mem's making a paddle so do I....

    It only took me two months with work, life, side projects, canoe trips, etc but I finally got my first paddle made. I used some shop scraps and a belt sander, table saw, power planer. That belt sander is justification for a bandsaw if I ever saw it. I winged it a little (a lot..... Ok all of...

    Wow good work. I always appreciate when someone has the time to leave a site in better condition than when they arrive.
