Thanks Larry,Life isnt a Beech after all specially when you have friends.
I rounded up a piece 14 feet long 12 'wide 2' thick quarter sawn and mostly clear it might do for outers Im thinking

Thanks for that post referring to Righteouswoods site....It isnt even a journey for me here in New Hampshire to drive down there. very interesting with what they have. Gives thought to any restoration project.....Really enjoy browsing around in here...LOTS of good information...By the way!....Tubbs snowshoes, originally Stowe Canoes, has sold out to K2 ski company and the opertion is moving out of the country,China I think, 22 people lost their jobs. My neighbor went over there last weekend.
