Lots of stuff goes on in this shop, located in Lorette, Manitoba.
Primarily it's the building and repair of classic wood & canvas canoes, and the making of premium canoe paddles. I also do custom boat building, composite fabrication, and special projects. A growing passion of mine is the making of classical guitars, I'll post about that, too.
I want to be able to share with my clients the progress of their commissioned work. Later I started thinking that there might be other people who are interested in what goes on inside a wooden canoe shop operated by an artist and a recovering teacher.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact meby email, phone, or by post. My mailing address is:

The filler is on the new Boreal. Now I just have to wait till its cured...but while I'm waiting I have the gunnels and trim to install, sand, and varnish.
And while the Boreal filler is setting up enough to work the trim, I go the keel and stem bands on the old Chestnut. I also finished the varnish on the trim and got the seats back in.
