In Response To: cove and bead (Butch)

Hi Butch, I've used both cove and bead and beveled joints on my boats, I think the next one will be done no cove and bead. I like the tight joints of the rolling bevel over the cove and bead. They tend to show more in the end. As far as wood look for someone who supplies deck materials. I cut my wood from 5/4 x 6" deck plank and was able to get 20 footers but chose not to as they are to long to run through my saw in the shop. Remember, you would need 20 feet plus room to get around on each side of the saw.
