: Last May I modified some kayak parts into a 16 foot prototype
: called the Reflection. In September that kayak was turned into a
: plug to make a mold for production. The first kayak was
: completed Tuesday and I paddled it yesterday.
: I documented the process in time lapse videos of roughly a minute
: each.
: The first time lapse video shows the building process. Those
: curious about the plug and mold making process can continue down
: through the rest.

Btw again, I know very well how long it takes to make a decent production mold, you deserve several pats on the back, here's one :)
