well piper their is this wood called plywood i think that is how u spell it but you just bend it over it glue it on and maybe screw it on aswell lol not a dumb question

nice lol

i made a nutshell pram like five years ago with my dad

homemade boats are great but are you really going to race it lol? i feel like molded mass produced boats, while certainly arent as nice, definitely are going to outperform a wooden boat 10/10 times

I agree with Andrew, I wanna see it when it's done!!!!

Agreed, you'll have to show us some more pictures! I grew up around wood workers, I'm always fascinated by the process.

the heater is needed because i glue the piece of the wood on and down here where i live its really cold and it needs to be kinda hot for the glue to dry so yeah :/
