Canoe #2 Update

I worked on the canoe some more last night.  I glued in the yoke / center thwart and the front cross braces to support the front deck.  Next I coated the inside of the dry box and seat brackets with epoxy.  I also decided to try out the epoxy tip paddle jig that I  made.  We'll see how that turns out.  Here are a few pictures:

Front cross braces.

Paddle in the jig.  I put Play Dough on the bottom and top side of the paddle to keep the epoxy from running down the blade.

Poured the epoxy into the reservoir and clamped it to the table so it wouldn't move.
