I'm still amazed with your cycle time. I used 5min when I built my F1 and was pretty busy this way

[@mattdjmorris]

Great video. Great to see many iterations to get a sense of flow. So many little hints. Thank you.

[@wcarpenter4307]

Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new. Thanks do much for all you do!

[@frostewistrom2911]

Thank you, this helps me getting closer to building up the courage and carving out the time to build my first boat.

Muito boa a explicação. Excelente trabalho. Parabéns!

[@pboireau]

Hi Do you put any mark in the middle of the ribs as well as on the keel to ensure that ribs are plumb and centered?

[@sergeyshcherbina7702]

что за порода дерева хорошо гнётся?

[@user-ot6ob9gl3s]

Do you find that using green oak the ribs shrink overtime in the mortises and become loose?

[@user-bd9qc6om8r]

А где можно размеры узнать? Здравствуйте

[@alexandresantosdasilva1454]

Is this wood pine?

[@daniellorca4452]

Hi I would like to be your student, in person. Is there a way to do that? Thank you

[@StrangeWorldofVee]

whats the formula for the lengths of the ribs

[@capefalconkayak]

I designed the formula for these boats, but it’s not something I could explain in a comment. There are many variables that change, depending on how you want the boat to perform and also what size the boat is. All the information is in our skin on frame, canoe building video course and plan set. Feel free to email me with any questions.

Какая длинна каноэ?

[@_pEgAC]

В видео есть размеры + на сайте тоже. Непонятно какую ткань он использует для обшивки.
