I’m not currently working on any bikes but I am working on a 40 year old cedar strip canoe that has been in the family forever. It was made by Sundance Canoes in Gravenhurst, ON which is no longer in business. I found this history on the web for anyone interested. My mom gave it to my dad for their anniversary and it has lived its whole life at our cottage in Canada. So, all in all, it is in remarkably good condition. There was a little rot on the end caps that I’m fixing by soaking epoxy resin into the affected areas and then I will use some light oak wood filler to finish it before I put the polyurethane on. I’m still undecided on whether I want to use brush-on marine poly or spray it with automotive clear coat…
