Title: Christmas gift
Post by: smitty55 on January 05, 2022, 10:00:00 PM
My daughter is full of surprises. Knowing my love for Kipawa over the last 40 years since she was a wee lass she showed up with this Christmas gift for me and I was thrilled. Great workmanship using 3/16 wood with a blue background behind the cutouts. With the frame it's 12"x18"

Greg it's a couple in Carleton Place that does them. My daughter has had a couple of other lakes done up too that I've seen and all were great quality. If you're interested I can get the info from Nicole and pass it on. Cheers

Ok here is the website that makes the maps. They had to merge a couple of maps together to be able to get most of Kipawa on that size of frame but now that they have the file it will be easier for future ones. They use laser engraving to do them up. Also if you give them GPS coordinates they can add a star or fish symbol on the shoreline on any part of the lake you want.
Also for Joe they could blow up your end of the lake down to red pine and up as high as you want.
Her name is Brigid Wallace and here's her site.  https://www.simplelittlemecreations.ca/
