    It's one of the easiest projects I have tried so far. I don't mind it looking a little ropey, as it's more traditional...least that's what i tell myself lol.
    Thanks Phil. Oh and hows the coracle coming along?

    Errrrrr, I've been stacked at work and heavily distracted by all my other unfinished projects All other pending projects (including bucksaw!) are now on hold until the coracle is finished, hopefully get some work done on it this week. Just gotta finish sewing round the stern and paint her up

    Every mile on a river takes you further from home than every hundred miles on a road.

    I hope thats a birchbark canoe in your pocket.... - I guess i should give some credit to Metal Mug

    The basic frame only takes around 20 minutes to half hour to knock up, then the level of finish is up to you I guess.
