: Thanks, I hadn't heard of this package. Will download and play
: around. Yeah I was really lucky and got to know a guy who makes
: novelty size letters and random objects for promotions/PR out of
: polystrene with a CMC!!!! I'm actually building 2 x 11ft long
: kayaks, inserting a shoeplate slot into the a small cockpit and
: attaching a shoe (much like cycling shoes), then banding the two
: kayaks together and using an extended paddle for propulsion -
: voila - walk on water.

: I would love to make a 16' touring kayak if it works.... but first
: things first.
