You supply the muscle to move the tool and the computer supplies the accuracy. The tool shown here is a router but it seems like a more general technique. You move a hand held power tool around sloppily and a computer makes small movements of the tool as you do that keeps it to a corrected path.

Heres a couple of video clips, real fun. The second clip is of the first one out the door, it felt like having a child leave home.

The slim girl with the dreadlocks and the green cap with glasses were the builders, both primary school teachers, delightful people and they found much to their surprise that they fitted in incredibly well with the mainly grey haired course members, this was almost like a family by the time we parted.

This guy has been updating us on his build on the Teardrop site I'm part of, can't believe how well his design works. Check out his build thread here. Makes my mouseboat strapped to the roof of my teardrop look lame...

I've had a Harbor Freight mini trailer collecting dust in my garage for several years. I decided it'd make a nice canoe hauler.

This is and interesting video. Good demonstration of planning ahead when measuring, cutting, clamping, and gluing. I have not yet found a video that shows the use of polyurethane glue in such detail.

I translated a book this summer, "Grandpa's Workshop", from French into English. It is coming out soon on Chris Schwarz' Lost Art Press, which woodworkers in the group might be familiar with. It is the story of a boy who goes to visit his Grandfather and listens to stories of his family, woodworking. Very cool on traditional hand tools, and the history of woodworking. Yes I have a financial interest, but I have posted many times on books of similar quality when I run across them, and this is a cool book and I would not have bothered to translate it if I didn't think it was a great book.

It's been a long time since we came up with a new video, and now we finally found the time to produce this.

The caravan/ boat combination-it is really hard to come up with a new boat idea. Watch "AMPHIBIOUS CARAVAN British Pathe" on YouTube.
