An ice cream stick teardrop wouldn't be that hard. it would be very time consuming though.
The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...

No, but I'd like to help if you try.

Well, we know for sure it wasn't that paste we used to eat in elementary school? I knew a kid who used to eat that stuff as a snack every day.

What I want to know is how many zillion clamps he used, and did he caulk all those planks?

:thinking: The article said he had enough sticks to build a couple more boats, maybe if somebody made a donation to his voyage, he would bring a million or two with him. :bounce: It may take a while but it would be a heck of a story :lol: And we all know at least part of the fun of a tear is the story :thumbsup:
