: Any fans of NBC's "Parks and Recreation" out there? Last
: night's epsisode showed the hilarious character Ron Swanson with
: a wood strip canoe in progress (on the strongback one day and
: fully glassed and varnished the next). Did someone on this board
: build the boat for the show? BTW, he had a great workshop. I
: particularly loved the box of oily rags sitting over the wood
: stove.

Yeah, I saw that and got a real kick out of it. It looks like my shop except for my fanatical firefighter approach to safety. The Ron Swanson character is my favorite. I build in my basement, and I've been asked 'How are you going to get that boat of here Gibbs?'
