Dinghier and dinghier

This is very cool. To put the dinghy together initially, you drill a series of little holes along the edge of each board and stitch them together with copper wire.












As each piece is added, it's pulled into shape and the boat just sort of magically appears. The fore and aft transoms are then stitched on and - presto - it suddenly looks like a boat!
