Everything set up and ready to draw!
Nails in.....Hmmmmmm how do I get the correct curve???
Office binder clips work great with the size 18 x 3/4" finish nails
Another view
Yet another view just a little darker and spookier

Its the 13 foot free plan. I want to see how this come out and I want to learn the "how to's" before I start a larger one. I figure if I can swing this with the free plans and it actually floats, purchased plans should be a breeze! I want to do a wood strip next.
Thanks for the replys, will keep loading some pics of the progress.

I did get to pick through the wood. Had some realy nice grain and there are no knots in the sheets at all. Has a reddish tint to the surface too. And you wouldnt believe the price.
