We’re on the Lookout – From Boats to Tools!
Do you have a slumbering wood canvas canoe in your garage?
Has your collection of antique (or modern!) tools reached capacity and it’s time to let go of a few?
Is that pile of cozy northern quilts just a little too tall?
Why not give your treasures a second life by donating them to the Boats to Tools Auction at North House Folk School?
A classic element of the Wooden Boat Show, the Boats to Tools Auction tells the adventure of life in the North.
Funds raised go toward brigning the international speakers, first-rate coursework, and regionally revered special events to North House’s campus in Cook County every year.
North House is accepting donations of types:
• Boats of all types / Boating Supplies / Boating Books
• Woodworking Tools / Woodworking Supplies / Woodworking Books
• Outdoor Gear / Camping Supplies / Outdoor Related Books
• Traditional Craft
The Wooden Boat Show has become a tremendously successful North Shore tradition, welcoming 2500+ visitors to campus.
Each year the festival includes a speaker series, craft demonstrations, wooden boat display, a life-sized puppet pageant and silent auction.
The Boats to Tools Auction takes place June 18 during the Wooden Boat Show.
Thank you!

While the original system worked quite well as a one-off post, it didn’t allow for updating or posting new photographs etc.
That is why I have introduced the new Your Pages.
This is new ‘Community’ platform is for 2018.
It is designed to put you in control of your content, make it easier to for you to tell us about your Wooden Boat, upload photos etc. and most of all post updates as and when you wish to.
There is also a forum where
you can ask any questions you may have about Wooden Boats and join in
the conversations.
So, please come on
over and join our community of likeminded Wooden Boaters.

I am perfectly aware that the majority of Wooden Boat aficionados are sensible folk.
However, I need to point out that I am an amateur wooden boat enthusiast simply writing in order to try to help other amateur wooden boat enthusiasts.
And while I take every care to ensure that the information in DIY Wood Boat.com is correct, anyone acting on the information on this website does so at their own risk.
