Wood-Canvas Canoe: ReCanvas & Fill
Course Overview
Once all the wooden components have been properly restored in your wood-canvas canoe and the canvas has been completely removed, the canoe will need to be recanvassed and filled – the focus of this course. The first day is devoted to strictly stretching and tacking canvas. The second day focuses on the filling process, a laborious but rewarding step prior to painting the hull. Participants will consult with the instructor a minimum of two weeks prior to the start of the course to determine the amount of work and materials that will be included. Participants are encouraged to work with a partner. Your materials should be paid the last day of the course - add 6.875% MN sales tax. All canoes must be ready to be canvassed on day one.
