Building a Cedar Strip Canoe in 30 Days

I ve been paddling the Adirondacks in cedar strip canoes with my aunt and uncle for as long as I can remember, so when my uncle offered to help me build my own canoe, I leapt at the opportunity. This was one of the most magical months of my life, getting to be up in Vermont learning from one of my favorite people. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed making it. For those wondering: it took 30 days to build the canoe, another month to get a good final varnish coat (quarantine started though, so we slowed down), then 3 months to edit the video. The final boat is 43 lbs and 14 long. Patreon (Longer More Technical Version): ORDER A CANOE: I built a 14 Lutra design. You may ask about guided builds when you reach out with an order.
