For those of you who have been following this fascinating series, the
project is nearing completion. In this episode Lou offers up some
tips on how to properly align drilled holes in thick material.

Lou announces that he plans to sell the completed boat on EBAY. It
will be interesting to see what it goes for.

I wish I had a monster band saw like that one he uses but it's not
going to happen.

Wow. The guy has some great tips. I would have clamped a piece of scrap to the back of the transom
to keep it from splitting out when the bit came through. I was surprised that he didn't do that.

I agree but since he was going to counterbore the hole, some small
splitting wouldn't have mattered. This boat is going to end up being
the Cadillac of all work skiffs.

If I ever used that bandsaw I'd have 7 or 8 fingers left when the boat
was done.
