I think Wolfgang Brinck stains his baidarka frames (or maybe he just did it for the baidarka building pages his website?) but it doesn't seem to serve any purpose other than continuing an Aleut tradition. Makes the bare frames look pretty neat, though.

: I don't know anyone who has stained a kayak frame, but there's no reason that
: you can't. However, once the boat is skinned, you won't see most of it,
: which is why putting a lot of effort into finishing a frame is pretty
: pointless.
