Hope you like this canoe light
8 feet long and 17" wide this canoe makes for a very cool table light

Ralph that is awsome, is it a new item from your shop or is it just for you.

Just wondering if the underside of that canoe has any shiny stuff to boost the output of those bulbs. (curious minds want to know)

Nice look on the light and on the rest of the house. I also love the light colored wood that surrounds the rest of the room.

The next logical step is a ceiling fan with paddle shaped blades and a miniature canoe shaped fan light.....

Nice looking light-

Ralph! AWEsome idea bro. That is downright marketable. A smaller version perhaps might ship better and can lights (or HIDs) might woo the SUV & Soccer Mom crowd.

Great idea - pursue it!
