A challenge to Lapstrake builders

Mark Adams

all wood nut
I have an open challenge to all those who build Lapstrake canoes (boats).

I have had Walt Simmons book on Lapstrake for years, and years. (I actually have both copies, the old vinyl bound one, and the new updated version). I have read, re-read, and re-re read ad nauseum the section on spiling. I cannot get my brain wrapped around the process. So, I hereby issue a challenge:

For a builder to record, and post to YouTube a video of the process, from start to finish.

I am sure there are others out there who are as stymied as I am. There is seemingly nothing on YouTube about the process and for those of us who can't seem to attend a class for one reason or another, it would be invaluable.

Any takers?
