More to a Dugout Canoe Than Just Chopping Out the Middle, Apparently

When I saw the model they were using for the finished product, I thought “that’s gonna be one cramped, miserable ride in the middle.”

I had no idea they were going to bend the flaps out.

Also, seems like the finished product was very lightweight, almost to the point of being flimsy, but that might’ve just been the way it looked on camera.

Finally, the best way to keep the boy occupied – a sharp tool and a block of wood. Don’t let liberals watch those scenes unless you have a fainting couch nearby.
