    When I was younger, I read a book by Ben Hunt about Native woodcraft. He built a canoe using saplings, that he steamed in a 50 gallon drum on a stone fire pit. He could also build toboggans and sleds that way. You might check that out too. Nice kayak btw. Skal

    I have a video suggestion you should make a fish or crab trap and see what you get

    In the future it might be worth lap joining saplings for the gunnels, so you don’t have to keep trying to split logs. If you wanted to try a completely bushcraft kayak you could use birchbark or sealskin and lash it with spruce roots, then seal it with pitch. Cool stuff! I’ve been wanting to try something like this for a while!
