I hope you enjoyed the video! Please give my uncle some love and order a canoe at www.ottercreeksmallcraft.com/ :) (or you can follow him on Instagram @ottercreeksmallcraft) AND if you're in the Vermont area, book one of his bands! www.atlanticcrossingvt.com/ www.frostandfireband.com/

Awesome build. Please find a good man and make lots of babies... the world.. and our country.. needs more people like you and the knowledge you're accumulating needs to be passed on! And it's pretty obvious that if you're not full of yourself (don't appear to be) then you can get nearly any man. Attractive, smart, capable, and most importantly... a DOER! Please take this to heart, make a huge family and pass on what you know and what you will keep learning in the future!

I recommend the Cessna 150/152. That Little plane float like a butterfly. Probably nowadays there are even lighter weight versions that are more fun. The smaller the plane, the more fun!

I grew up on the rivers of Alaska. My best friend, Mike Caldwell, taught the canoeing merit badge class at Lost Lake Boy Scout Camp in the interior. We were part of the Midnight Sun Council. Watching you build this canoe brought back memories of canoeing with Mike. My wife and I did an eight day canoe trip down Birch Creek from 90 miles up the Steese Highway. The trip was on our first anniversary. We put in up near Eagle Summit and had to portage about a mile to get to the river. From there down to the bridge at 160 mile took 8 days. We had two canoe's, Mike and our friend Steve Olsen were in one canoe and Edy and I were in the other. I'll never forget it, though it was 45 years ago. Mike is gone now, and I miss him. You are blessed to have a family that values you and gives you good outdoor skills and experiences. I noticed your skill in handling the paddle quietly and using a J stroke to correct the direction of the canoe. May you live a long life and pass these values onto your children and grandchildren.

We covered the outside with canvas and put about 12 coats of lacquer to shrink and make the canoe waterproof. I think the gunwales were white ash. Thanks for a trip down memory lane.

Beautiful boat, but this video is about so much more than a canoe. That was the pinnacle of your Uncle's canoe building career, having a whole month to create a functional work of art with someone he cares so dearly about, shoulder to shoulder. As he continues to build these canoes it will now be a much more lonely affair for him. Yet, he can draw in the memories of having such a wonderful month teaching and working with you to keep him energized. Be sure to call him and your Aunt from time to time, just to say "Hello". That will keep them full of life for many years to come.

I make a lot of doors, and I don’t need one tenth the amount of clamps, more curves demands more clamps, there’s some formula there for Zeiler and her buddy at veritasium To figure out.
