First and foremost- Happy New Year!
Today I took my first baby step at getting Paige's kayak started. I took the offsets for the Sea Flea, laid them out in table-form and converted them from feet to inches and millimeters (we'll see which I find more useful). My hope was to take advantage of a quiet workplace and layout the actual cross sections on foam board- but so far, that hasn't happened.
Yesterday also yielded another trip to Lowes for a home/bedroom remodeling project. While there, I took advantage of it and picked up a couple more supplies:
| Category | Item | Price |
|---|---|---|
| (See entire list.) | ||
| Supplies | 8" Cable Ties (100 pack) | $4.88 |
| Supplies | Fine cut/Metal Jig Saw Blades (3 pack) | $4.97 |
| Tools | Sanding Block | $2.28 |
| Misc. Fees | Tax (from Lowes) | $0.73 |
| Lowes Total: | $12.86 | |
| Project Total: | $113.87 | |
Truth be told, the cost of tools has added up more quickly than I expected. But, my goal is to build myself a kayak - if that happens, then it'll all be worth it. If not, well- I hope I enjoy this build.
