The most amazing 40″ Lobster boat build!

Kyle from Placentia, CA built himself a real lobster boat! Wow, and more wow! I was so astounded at the photos of the 40″Lobster boat from our kit, I almost cried how beautiful of a job. Thank Kyle. He has a site at (Lobster boat pictures) with his step by step process. By far a work of art. He did many things to improve on the kit. Very amazing Kyle, I can’t say enough here about it except a million thanks for your pictures and beautiful work.

36″ Viking Canoe

I sent Tom a finished 36″ canoe that had been a display model at craft shows. He magically turned it into a Viking Princess that will hold ashes for a funeral. I’ve had numerous requests for this and there’s postings of a couple that have been done. Good work Tom, looks awesome.

Beautiful 96″ canoe from the forms kit.

Hugh from STRAWBERRY PLAINS, TN built this beauty using the 96″ form kit that we sell, which replaced the whole 96″ kit. Absolutely beautiful work!

Thanks for the kit.  Modified the design a little, used walnut, poplar and eastern red bud that I cut and milled on the farm.  Attached a couple pics thanks again! Hugh

“This Old Canoe Chandelier”

Our newest canoe is a 96″ “Skeleton” canoe, which is the ribbing only with all the other pieces such as the toe rails, seats, thwarts and deck caps. It looks awesome. There’s some tricky parts that we learned how to overcome. All the ribbing had to be laminated with two layers of ribbing so it would maintain it’s shape when dry and be strong enough. Staining is the other challenge, since it is hard to do multiple stains, so we opted to make the whole canoe look like a very old canoe that had been weathered. It has the same premium LED flat panels, 7″ and more lumens, dimmable and very attractive. The light deck is tucked up high enough that small pendant lighting could be installed. This type of skeleton canoe has been requested many times, so we decided to give it a try. Very pleased with it. As of right now, this one is for sale.
