Getting ready to start ordering hardware but unsure about a few things:
1. Stem bands removed we're aluminum, read somewhere that Old Town did use aluminum bands on some models, would they be correct for the 1918 CS #50?
2. Have WR cedar for planks that need replacing, it looks pretty dark compared to the original planking, could it be possible that original planking is actually NW cedar even though the build record say's WR?
3. Any sources for the original oval head nails used for the top and outer gunwale?
Greatly appreciate any responses, thanks,
Don
