Homemade Wooden Boat

This was Wheel's first Christmas and Poppa made him a wooden boat.

He plays with it a lot and even makes little motor noises when he plays with it.

You can make your own by following the measurements above. Poppa used about 2 feet of red elm, 2 1/2 inch wooden dowel rod, 4 wood screws, and wood glue.

1) Cut your boards.

2) Drill the hole for the dowel rod.

3) Screw the top two pieces together with the screw heads at the bottom.

4) Then attach those to the large piece from the bottom.

5) Use wood glue to affix the dowel rod.
