Day 12 or so

So here I am ready to start ripping. My longest piece of cedar runs 12', and my longest guide rail (I don't have a tablesaw like most normal woodworking folk. I use a system of tools by a company called Festool). 


So I have joined to of my rails together to make something long enough. They are held together by a connector that slides in the T-channel underneath. I'm really suppose to have two, but I only have one.



The pieces below are also part of the Festool system. They allow me to make repetitive thin strip cuts. If I didn't have them, cutting all the stringers to exactly the same 1" width would be tough.







Here I am ready to start ripping. Eventually I figured out how to get all of this off the floor, which was a great deal more comfortable.



Finally a shot of two blue kayaks drifting on the late, sometime in November, which for around here is pretty good.


The action is just getting started. Stay tuned.
