Tuesday, Feb 19, I drove to Turnpoint Designs in Port Townsend, and picked up the SCAMP kit. It is a stack of about a dozen sheets of plywood that have been cut with a laser router into all of the various sheet pieces needed to build the boat.
My van won't quite fit a 4x8 sheet in the back - it hangs out the back about 2 inches. While this is ok for local trips, I didn't want to drive the 4 hours back to Portland with the back door partially open. So, I had arranged with Brandon Davis at Turnpoint to not tab the pieces in the sheets. This allowed me to easily load individual pieces into the van, and then I stacked the scraps on the top.
Fortunately I had great weather for loading, because it took almost 2 hours.

And, the kit parts stacked in the shop.
