Nice vid. I hadn't thought about the can opener gouge. How did you cup it?

Also, any thoughts on building a garvey boat?

I heated the can opener up with a torch and forged it with a small ball pain hammer. Then I heated up again and dipped it in oil to temporary little bit. Gravy boat A? I did start a holiday boat while I was out there but it was too big to carveout so I brought it home to finish. When I say holiday bow I mean Little boat thing with three compartments for all olives, pickles and relish. The best wood for making anything food related is always going to be fruitwood.

Thanks. I really like the gouge idea.
I was referring to the Ben Garvey boat design. It seems doable for a novice with basic tools. Thx

LOL gravy boat LOL Garvey Boat a don't know looks like a solid and easy versatile boat to build. Was thinking of something with that kind a hull shape for myself someday just to play around with on the Lake. Pretty much everything I've ever dealt with is sailboats but I really don't care for sailing it was just the coolest thing to build out of wood at the time and got sucked into it for almost 20 years now.
