Greetings,

Posted this last year, and I am still looking for a supplier to get Basswood for building my first DN. Everyone I called said they only stocked 10' lengths. I have a source that will rough cut me wood to any size, but will have to dry it.

Please help. Also looking for a source for plywood.

Tring to find lumber here in the Twin Cities is harder than I thought. Called several lumber yards and saw mills and can't find lumber to suit the construction of my new DN hull.

I have heard that people are substituting Bass for Sitka Spruce. Any ideas where to find lumber long enough for the task at hand, 2 @ 1"x8"x14' & one for the stringer 1"x3"x12.5'
