sources for cedar strips
 
howdy,

A question for the canoe and kayak builders on the group: Where do you
get your cedar strips? Are there places that sell kits with
bead-and-cove strips?

At the small sawmill where I work, we're often cutting cedar, and we
pull the occasional beautiful clear board. I'm thinking of putting
together canoe kits of approx 65 b-feet. Any information you folks
could give me on existing products of this type would help a great
deal.

PS I apologise in advance if this type of post is considered
commercial and unwanted.

Search the Internet. My 'kayak-pusher' (http://oneoceankayaks.com),
got a resource page - look there.

Are there places that sell kits with bead-and-cove strips?


Yep - mine where milled local (denmark!)

"approx 65 b-feet"


Which means..??

Gil Gilpatricks book has sources for buying the router bits for bead
and cove and a simple jig with a router table can be rigged up, great
resource and detailed instructions.

I was fortunate enough to have two routers when I did mine and had a
jig so both the bead and cove were cut at the same time.... I don't
have the bits or the jig anymore, though. Someone that owns the bits
probably can sell you some premade.
