In Response To: Need wood for stems (Curt)

: I am building a Nomad 17 and need wood for the inner and outer stems. I live
: in an area where it is impossible to find any type of boatbuilding lumber
: that is worth a crap. Can anyone send me some stock to make the inner and
: outer stems for my canoe? I plan on making the stems from 1/4" thick
: laminations. Any wood that you guys with experience think would be good is
: fine with me. I was thinking ash or something for the outside and I'm not
: sure what should be used for the inside. I will pay whatever you think is
: fair, plus shipping. Any help you folks can give me would be greatly
: appreciated.
Give new found woodworks a call. they can fix you up. The number is 603-744-6872 i believe it is $20 for the outer and I'm not sure for the inner. Good luck.
