Ross,

Yes, like a cage. I think it would be good for an expedition kayak. To put them together, you could notch one halfway through from the top and the other halfway through from the bottom.

Mike

: Sort of a "cage"? It would look interesting, but I'm not sure how
: you would go about constructing one without butt-gluing two half-loops to
: the sides of a full loop (which wouldn't be too strong).

: The smaller loops that I'm working on will be plenty strong for my purposes.
: If all my stacks have dried, I'll be gluing them up tonight. On the deck,
: they should be less obtrusive as well.

: Ross
