Building an Aligator
#16
I guess this is now a serious project.
Bill bought the white oak and had it milled with a ship lap edge for the bottom, thats the stack to the right. Under the 2x4s to the left is 2x6 white oak for the skids and internal frame work.
Went down this morn and Bill and I started laminating the sides, 2x4 spruce stacked on the flat, with butyl caulking between. The sides are 28 feet long with a taper front and back to give 18 feet on the bottom.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
