Spidey, What a great name! Thanks for the vote of confidence but from what I have seen on this BB I am just making one that hopefully floats. The work some of the folks do here is amazing. Including their Hulls. I especially like the Weave kayak posted about a week ago. Give us a link so we can see some of your work, I am sure it is beautiful. If you read the previous response to roger you will see why last night I pulled what few brad nails I had in the stem and stern areas and tried out my hand at knocking a few high spots down. You betcha, the plane is a tool that lets you get alot of work done in a short time. I missed this opportunity on my canoe. I look forward to fairing the kayak a little differently than the canoe.

Cheers, Elliott
