Subject: Pee Wee Pictures

Mr. Witt

As you suggested, here are pictures of one of my two failures and the final success of installing the chines on the Pee Wee. The first failure was using spruce as it came from the lumber yard, that's when I E-mailed you. The second failure was when I used hot water to bend the wood. On the third try, I used the lamination method - success.

It occurred to me that in all of the pictures and discriptions of other peoples boat building experiences, no one has ever exibited any failures. That leads one to believe that all things must go without difficulties in working wood, just hard work is needed.

More later.
