A Woodworking Magazine Top 40 Book
Now revised and expanded with 32 pages of color and an updated resources section, this 70,000-copy international bestseller, known as the 'Bible of canoe building' is back, bigger and better than ever.
Ted Moores is a master builder of woodstrip/epoxy canoes. Over four decades teaching wooden-boat construction, he discovered that the same dream motivates all of his students, no matter their age: to build something beautiful and functional.
Canoecraft is the road map to that dream. Moores offers comprehensive instructions for the first-time builder, and for the second-time builder. He adds a variety of canoe plans, each presented as a traditional table of offsets. There is also a series of builder's tips and techniques, and an entire chapter on carving a paddle, the perfect accompaniment to a handcrafted canoe.
Whether the goal is to build a general-purpose recreational canoe, or an efficient modern tripping canoe, or a full-decked fast-cruising canoe with walnut veneer, Canoecraft is the ideal guide to making it happen successfully.
Five Stars Step by Step, tips, what to do and what not to do. Very inspirational.Pictures are too dark to use. Google skills required. Two complaints. First is with the pictures that marketing would have us think makes this book extra special. Opposed to black and white images, my copy is filled with black and dark grey images. Between the dark prints and small framing, I simply can't make out the details they are meant to depict. I'm 35 with good eyes. With little woodworking experience I find myself googling more than I think I would otherwise need to if only I could make out the images.Also, mid sentence interruptions 4 pages in length are inserted for builders tips. These are major hiccups in the flow of reading. I'm sure this is the publishers doing to save a dollar every 100 or so copies. It won't hinder building a boat but does add frustration.The cover photo is so attractive, I think I'll leave it on the coffee table so that I pick it up almost daily. I was impressed with this book the moment I opened the package. I literally read 3/4 of the book the day it arrived. The pictures are B&W and show good detail, although I wish some were color. The amount of info contained in the book is ALMOST overwhelming. I'm sure to refer back to the book as I build my first canoe. My son has been by three times in the last two weeks; he's picked up this book every time he's stopped. I believe with this book and one other I purchased, they will answer 99% of any questions I might come up with before finishing my boat. It's already helped with several thoughts important before choosing a canoe or starting the project. I'm a firm believer in the phrase " Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.". This book has already helped me get my thoughts together and plan the design and process I want to use. I'm sure it will be invaluable during the actual construction.
