Rick ,

This follow only has a small mill and cut 8 foot long broads. he said he could speical cut some longer for me but I was to excited to get started the clear pine was 12 foot though sound like I have just about the right amount may I'LL rip one more (15 strips) just to be safe) I have to say this cedar looks a lot better then the cedar I got at the lumber yard for my paddle and was a lot cheaper to.
