    Subject: Wood Sources
    From: "Glenn Thomas" <glennthomas@flyingwood.com>
    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Glenn Thomas" <glennthomas@flyingwood.com> Question: If you were buying wood to build ribs with, where would you go to get it? I didn't want to buy Sitka Spruce boards and cut them with my tablesaw. I'm interested in finding out if I bought the wrong type of wood. I didn't buy a lot but in talking with the establishment I bought it from, I was VERY surprised to hear their last statement on dealing with this problem. (In the end, if I do have to eat the wood I bought I'm only out $300 and much better educated, perhaps worth the $300) -------- Glenn Thomas N????? http://www.flyingwood.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=28261#28261

    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Dick Navratil" <horzpool@goldengate.net> For my first project I bought from Aircraft Spruce. Wood was great quality, but took a long time to get delivered. Second project, I tried cutting my own, that didn't work too well, so I ordered from Wicks. Great quality, quick delivery and about the same price as ACS.

    From: "Glenn Thomas" <glennthomas@flyingwood.com>
    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Glenn Thomas" <glennthomas@flyingwood.com> I bought 96 pieces of capstrip from Aircraft Spruce and Specialty to do the ribs. I was concerned with the grain slope and the overall crappy quality of the order (some pieces missing CHUNKS!). I bought Advisory Circular 43.13 (also a download from FAA which I recommend to anyone building a wooden plane) and got the FAA definition of airworthy wood (grain slope not to exceed 1 inch over a 15 inch length on ALL FOUR FACES). My order was plagued with knots, divots, and grain issues. I called them, quoting 43.13, and they said they would replace any bad wood, but would have to check with Mr. Irwin (president???) for authorization. This was the last thing I heard from them... "The only wood they sell specifically for structural use is spar material." So my assumption is that the capstrip, and all the wood they sell (non-spar) is for non-structural (decorative?) use. Since I'm new to this (ribs are my first part of this project) I'm wondering how everybody else gets aircraft grade lumber. What is capstrip anyway? Am I misinterpreting something here? -------- Glenn Thomas N????? http://www.flyingwood.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=28290#28290

    Subject: Re: Wood Sources
    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Catdesign" <catdesign@intergate.com> I got my wing rib stock from wicks, good wood, good service, good price. They were cheaper on steel last time I ordered too. Fuselage wood came form the guy in Canada (Gene Peters), but I think he retired. This is the second time someone on the list had problems with Aircraft Spruce. Hope its not a trend.
