Finishing Touches

Finally down to the end.  After a year and 4 months, I'm calling it done.  There is one  glaring omission - I did not re-finish the sponsons.  They will have to wait for another effort.

The final bits were to re-finish the thwarts, re-furbish the front seat, and build a new back seat.  In addition to building the seats, I also decided to brand the back seat with the OLD TOWN logo, OTCA 1945, and my signature.  This was done using a logo downloaded from the net, and scanner, and a laser etcher!  The etching came out quite nicely if I do say so myself.  Then, gluing up the dowel joints, 4 coats of varnish, and weaving some 1" webbing, and voila personalized seats!

And Finally, install the seats and thwarts...

Some final pics...

Well, that about does it.  Perhaps some outdoor pics in the spring when the weather is nicer!
