scotiawood laboratories under construction

Round timbers have begun to go up for this future workshop in the 'wood. It is to be mostly green balsam logs pegged together with square ironwood pegs, riven out with a hatchet and driven home with a handmade maul. For the coming summer I have milled out parts for a few new boards and plan to work under this roof with hand tools.... blah blah blah

Against Animal Testing

Unless you count sea urchins... Here's some nice pictures of the flat little fishy I hope to sell soon. Turns out It's easier to ride than it is to sell, for multiple reasons. I was able to cut quite a bit of weight out of the design and I've ridden it a couple days, just to be sure. Really really fast and fun to pump on smaller days. And GOD it looks good. The leash loop used to be a sea Urchin. Check it out! Scroll down to "Cherry Fish" for more of the specs.
