: O.K. I've been following some of the Baidarka threads, and of
: course, reading up on Baidarkas and such. So here's the
: question, how in the world do you build the stern on those
: things? (mostly I've been looking at the Star series from
: Laughing Loon).

I give detailed instructions on building the bow and stern of my baidarka designs.

But, no mater how much I explain and give photos, there's nothing like doing it, to make the process clear.

That's why the best advice I can give to people who want to build one, is to do a test build of the bow and stern
parts of my baidarkas with lesser quality wood. You will make mistakes AND LEARN how to do it the second time
with your top quality wood.

All the best,
Rob
