I am new to the world of kayak building, and it's very exciting! I'd like to build my own kayak at the lowest possible price and likely based on
Marcel's folder.
I have a few basic questions:
Does anyone know why bamboo is or isn't a good material instead of his aluminum tubes?
I'm tempted to just fool around with building one without following a set pattern, but modeling it mostly off of Marcel's. What kind of obstacles have people run into when building from scratch?
How do I guarantee it will be the right size for me?
Thank you in advance for answering any or all of my questions
