I finished up my deckhand duties on the Hjordis (http://www.northhousefolkschool.com/classes/Sailing.htm), was headed out, and hooked-up with the canoe building instructor.
Ken knew the cedar strip canoe class was on my short list & I was recruited to be the G.E.B. (Guy on End of Board) for some time sensitive work.
I measured/mixed resin, smoothed glass and brushed goo for 2 days. Headed back tomorrow for more OJT. They do some beautiful work.

This was underway on campus too. They cut demenssion and fit all timber segments at North House Folk School in a classroom environment. Then transport and assemble on the owner's site. I've seen a few of the finished structures, they range from simple storage buildings to complex hi tech homes.
Awesome
