    I get a friend of mine to make them with a table saw out of ash , that way if I catch them with the saw or leave them behind it fine and cost nothing. But I have have 3 plastic one as well. The wooden one are good for cross cutting large logs to keep them open.

    I started in school and from there did 3rd level and trained in the great out doors , worked all over Ireland for about 2 years (not a great life) ran just about every river here and like other people here did the Liffey decent about 8 time in my life , canoeing clubs are the best way to go , they have the people and gear to help you out and in winter they run courses in pools (warm) and there is canoe polo great fun , try and get to a lake in Wicklow a few time a year now that's about it.
