PaulR 3 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Ahhhhh So the boats big enough to take the dining room table and stools. Great idea Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I'm not sure I would get away with it now (57 yrs married) but once glued up and shaped a forty foot spruce mast, which stretched from back door through the lounge/dinind and intoi the entry. I was only ten days or so and I left the varnishig and sanding to "Er indoors" so she would feel a part of it. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 There is no sawdust underneath, It looks like a setup to me. Link to post Share on other sites
PaulR 3 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 There are: No other tools lying around to trip over, No off cuts self glueing to the table, No old or new bits of sandpaper lying about handy, No bits of other boating equipment just waiting for other stuff to happen, No takeaway used food containers, No dirty clothes just taken off because it's warmer inside, The house is tidy, floor clean So perhaps OldGirl is correct. I pondered the hair situation too. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rocket Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I certainly couldn't get away with building anything so ugly - I would be compelled to give myself a firm slapping on principle. My Uncle built a Jav in his mothers living room in the early 60s - he had to take the window frame out to get it out... Link to post Share on other sites
Murky 1 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 What size bow thruster would you recommend for a boat like that, Rocket? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rocket Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Oh I think i'd just put the standard one on - couple of AA batteries would complete the setup Link to post Share on other sites
PaulR 3 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 and you still reckon it's intended to be a boat that floats Perhaps SWMBO is expecting a multiple birth situation and needs a larger than normal rocking bed Link to post Share on other sites
