dryfly.ca started as a website for sharing one of my DIY projects, a stitch and glue kayak. Since then I've added several more projects including a skin-on-frame kayak, cedar strip canoe, kayak paddles, canoe paddles, building a spey rod, and an antenna for receiving OTA HDTV. I also occasionally ramble on about politics, technology, bike racing, product reviews and last but not least, our kids.

Tight Lines!

I finally finished scarfing the gunwales. My second attempt went very well, but one joint got a piece of dirt or debris in it. Using weights and having the planks side by side, it was very difficult to see if the joint was good. The one scarf therefore didn’t have a tight fit and the joint was barely glued. I pulled it apart, sanded the surfaces flat, and glued it again.
