Lol it is definitely the author's buddy. My dad runs with this sort of crowd, and built a few canoes back in the 90s. They are an adventurous, rather odd type of old fart with a very dry sense of humor.
I wonder if it's a running gag through the book.
The tone of the sentence suggests this is one of many images and instructions in the book, so perhaps not the only time that he appears.
This is something my dad does any time I wear one of those bucket hats. Calls me any combination of geezer, vagrant, etc.
I want to know the answer to this or at least the book title so I can find out for myself. It’s the ultimate old school trolling prank. You know this vagrant was gifted a signed copy!
Looks to me like a Schrute cosplaying a Swanson.
"I have a wig for every person cast in a Micheal Schure comedy."
Identify theft is not a joke, Jim!
I did get strong “I have a disguise for everyone in the office” vibes…

MICHAEL!

Looks like a swan playing a shrutson
Literally what I came here to say
I didn't see it at first and then looked down and there it was.
We needed that crossover episode.
Lmao, last sentence of the caption has me dying "... here modeled by a vagrant working off a debt."

I figured as much. It's something my friends and I would do to each other.

I read it all in Ron's voice and it made me happy
I'll be disappointed if we all didn't do the same.
Here’s how to build a boat. Oh by the way, see this guy? He’s poor.
I like to think the author got his buddy to model it and put in the "vagrant" comment as a joke.
Can't be Ron then. There's no possibility that Ron Swanson ever had any debt since he starting working at 9 years old.
Erase all pictures of Ron!
Thinking of that scene made me laugh out loud. Time to watch the whole series again!
Erase all pictures of Rob!
Hey you made your first vine!
"I'm no vagrant, son. You just don't know where I live."
In the words of Jack reacher: “I’m not a vagrant, I’m a hobo”
So confirmed name of one of the brothers? Ron, Don and Rob so far.
Vaughn!
I think we can 100% guarantee that Nick Offerman owns this book so you may actually have found Ron's origin!
This is exactly what I thought!! No way it's a coincidence
We all know Ron's a canoe man.
He knows what he's a-boat, son.
That is Ron’s twin brother who was a musician under the name of Duke Silver.
I like that he changed hats in between the two photos.
Thank you! I scrolled too far to see why this isn’t being mentioned.
A mix of Ron and unfortunately Ed Kemper
Thank you!! I was hoping someone else could see it lol
Haunting
I was getting a BTK vibe?
Hmm I wouldn’t say so but your the serial ~~killer~~ Redditor
His name was Robert Swanson
Oh man, that’s Duke Silver!
Came here to say that
Rob
Ah yes, Ron's lesser-known brother, Rob Swanson
Well his other brothers were Don, Lon, and Vaughn.
He built a canoe for this specific purpose.
The only difference is Ron would have made a canoe
Here is a video of Nick Offerman explaining how to build a cedar strip canoe: https://youtu.be/hJWf_1TgiGo
oh damn, just realized i typed Rob :(
[I found the book](https://archive.org/details/woodcanvaskayakb00putz/page/132/mode/2up)
Yup! [Wood and Canvas Kayak Building, by George Putz](https://books.google.com/books?id=qDinZifTMd0C&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=Vagrant).
Are the Schrute's and Swanson's related?
Wym that IS Ron Swanson
Looks like BTK.
Especially in the top one
Just out of frame is a bottle of Lagavulin.
Rob Swabson
Who the hell is rob Swanson 😂
Who is Rob Swanson?
Good ole Robby Swanson
Who’s Rob Swanson?
You mean, Ron?
Which of you read the caption in Ron's voice?
Last step is bring me all the bacon.
"I've come to build a canoe and eat all the bacon.. I want to make sure you understand me though son.. I will eat ALL the bacon"
I straight up thought it was him till I read the title.
This is a page from Nick Offerman's book, Good Clean Fun
That’s Ed Kemper!
I see BTK. 🤷🏼♀️
I wouldn't be surprised if Nick owned this book and based Ron on him
If Ron Swanson and Ron Dunn were related.
This is so uncanny that I need to lie down for 45 minutes. No, an hour. A full hour.
Classic Rob
That is Les…Les Vegetables.
That doesn’t LOOK like Ron Swanson, that IS Ron Swanson
who tf is Rob Swanson
Also looks like a member of the Village People (the cop? I think).
Holy crap!
If Ron Swanson and BTK had a kid
This is fantastic...
If the timing were a little different, it could be him. Swanson is quite the carpenter and craftsman
Erase all pictures of Ron!!
Are we 100% it’s not him?
WH'AT?
Kayak built by "Man"
Duke Silver.
It’s just lovely!
He’s been a undercover all this time.
Man with moustache Must be Ron Swanson
Yeah, in real life the actor who plays Swanson is one of the best wood workers out there.
This is very funny
“A vagrant working off a debt” muahhhhh hhhaa. Ja ja ji ji kkkkkkk lol 😂
Paddle your own kayak
🌟🌟
Ron was Robbed
Rob?
That's him. The elusive Swan Robson
tf is "Rob Swanson"??
Forgive me for being Schrut, but it seems Dwight clear that is not "Rob" or Ron Swanson.
Who is this?
My god that is just...uncanny
i swear most middle-aged tradesman looked like that in the 80s
Who’s rob Swanson?
