11:02:44 PMLook for some poplar. It might be easier to come by in your area.You'll need pretty much the same quality standard as fir. It worksbetter than fir also. Not as nice as spruce, but pretty good.Mike BellColumbia, SCdennis yates (at)matronics.com on 03/27/2000 08:19:08PMPlease respond to pietenpol-list(at)matronics.com Sent by: owner-pietenpol-list-server(at)matronics.com To: pietenpol list cc: Subject: Pietenpol-List: book Hello has anyone seen a book or plans for a bandsawmade of plywood?

Should the rear spar be>moved foward .75" or should the spar be placed as shown and made .125">shorter to fit between the capstrips?

Jeff,Think this was discussed a while ago. Seems there is a glitch in thesizing. Some decided to bevel the top of the spar. What I did was to notchthe rib in the back/top of the slot where the spar fits. Moving the spar is probably not a good idea, cause changing one dimensionwill change 20 more down the line. Now that I've finished all major parts,you can see why certain dimensions were like they are, but you don't findout till months or years later when things come together.walt-----------------------------------------------------Click here for Free Video!!http://www.gohip.com/freevideo/-----Original Message-----
