the other night at work i met a fellow from south carolina. he makes wooden canoes.he offered to show me one of the paddles he made that he had with him. each canoe and paddle are made by hand no patterns or jigs. i was amazed by this and thought i would share it with you guys here is the link to his web site: http://www.woodsongcanoes.com/canoes.htm
i don't think i could ever afford one but they are still beautiful pieces of work.
