    Hello...

    Now this is real touchie feelie - but I just rescued my one and only first edition of 'Boat-Building' by Chapelle published by Norton - from a diesel and water flood...

    Thing as a book is worth **** now - **** water hit it too - so I am now thinking of cutting out the plans and illustrations and scanning same...

    Anyone interested - it is a bit of restorative work - which I am good at - but if anyone wants to sue my *** - they will have find me to do same...

    I will miss this book - now is the time to scan the drawings...

    Please lend me your thoughts - Jeff - moderators - I would like to upload these scans - is it legal - I do not know - I have to do it for myself - this book is a mess...

    I would like to upload all here...

    Honest question...

    What a crappy year...

    SH.
