Richard,

Back in the 60's Popular Mechanics / Science and Mechanics / Mechanics
Illustrated had a building article:

"Foamy, the boat you build with a razor blade"

I haven't been able to find it online.

Didn't see it. My unreliable 40 year old recollection is that it was in
Science and Mechanics.
