[QUOTE="DearJon, post: 272781, member: 9078"] Gillhunter, I have to say that your boat is one of the most simplistic, well thought out representations of what a jon boat should be. You have incorporated only what is important to you and your wife, based on the type of fishing you enjoy. Great job. I just have one little piece of advice for anyone who needs to cut/shape cutting board material quickly. You can use a standard circular saw that is set up to rip. Simply turn your saw blade around where the teeth are facing back wards. Then cut normally, or a little slower than you normally would. The inverted teeth will actually melt the material as they cut. Of course, if you have a fine tooth cross-cut blade, then just use that. Reciprocating saw works well too. I learned this technique in the Marines, while making explosive charges/breaches. [/QUOTE]
