Hello Good People!The latest BPA issue is in the mail and should be hitting your doors starting thisweek. I am in the process of trying to put one more together before Brodhead.One thing I would like to do is put a nice tribute to Dick Navritil in thatissue. If you have any stories and or pictures to share of Dick, please sendthem my way so we can salute him in the manner he deserves. He touched a lotof lives and was a key figure in the Piet movement of the last several years.Also, I have a new website about to launch and would like 5 to 10 people to helpin beta testing. Let me know if you are interested.-john-________________________________________________________________________________

John,These are the only pictures I have of Dick; but I can also say:In 2008, I was struggling through my 4th year on an all-metal plane, havingset aside my Pietenpol plans for something more suitable for x-country. Ithink it was about February of that year that Dick's Piet was featured onthe cover of Sport Aviation. It was like the proverbial light bulb. Iabandoned the metal, and spent four enjoyable years building my Pietenpol.Gary BootheNX308MB-----Original Message-----

Went to Wicks last week and got some spruce. Just as an average I figured BF pricebased on 1" x 1" @ $2.75...figures up to $33 a board foot, if I'm doing mymath correctly.Don't get me wrong, it is about the most beautiful, straight, tight grained woodI have ever seen, but I don't think I can afford $33 BF for entire build.Has anyone ever tried mast and spar grade spruce from marine supply? It looks tobe on average at all the places I looked, around $10 to $11 per BF in rough2" x 6".

I used mast and spar spruce for all of my rib stock and empennage. It was fine.The supplier stopped stocking the material so I went to AC Spruce for the fuselagekit. Much more expensive.

Jon,I went to our local MacBeth Hardwood supplier and they stock quarter sawn Sitkaspruce in lengths up to 16 feet. I bought it in 1"x 6" and 2" x 6" rough pieces.Their price was $7.86 BF. I was able to select boards with high rings perinch. I bought enough for my entire Piet. I also bought a bargain bag of Sprucefrom ACS and was very happy with it.BrianSLC-UT-----Original Message-----

Jon,I got my first batch of Sitka from the same place as Scott (on the same day, atthe same time), rough sawn, 2x6 x 20 ft long. That was several years ago, andback then it cost about $7/bf. As Scott said, the quality was acceptable. That,of course, will be up to you to determine, based on AC43.13-1B guidelines.When I needed another plank, I went to an upscale specialty wood supplier, andpaid $18/bf for a 2x6 rough sawn plank. You get what you pay for. The secondplank was perfect. Absolutely none of it was unusable, whereas with the firstplank, I had several sections that I had to work around.Just did a little research on Wick's and Aircraft Spruce websites. Quite a differencein pricing. As you say, for 1"x1" Wicks is $2.75/ft, and AS is $5.35/ft.And for 1" x 6" spar stock, Wicks is $12.75 vs AS $18.55. Based on the 1x6,Wicks is $25.50/board foot, and Aircraft Spruce is $37.10. But keep in mindthat these are prices for finished, inspected/graded wood. obviously that wouldbe more expensive than rough sawn planks.However, when you say you are worried about the cost of Spruce to build the plane,keep in mind that Spruce is only a small component in the overall cost. Evenif you buy each stick in finished sizes, you would likely be looking at maybe$2000 for Spruce for the whole plane. Then there's plywood, and adhesive,and metal, and fittings, and fasteners, and pulleys, and turnbuckles, and instruments,and wheels, and engine, and, and, and ... My point is that Sitka Sprucewill only account for maybe 15% of the cost. So, even if you can cut thatcost in half, the overall impact on the total cost is not huge.Bill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: mast and spar grade sitka

Sitka spruce is Sitka spruce regardless of the supplier. "Aviation Grade" meansthat it meets the requirements of AC 43-13 for certified aircraft. There aregrowth ring and longitudinal runout/slope requirements as well as disqualifyingdefects that are explained well enough for you to do your own "grading".

Thanks for all the good replies everyone! I guess I should have said that I havereviewed grading standards. I was just curious if based on anyone else's experienceusing what suppliers call mast and spar, if it for the most part met ringsper inch, grain slope, non-defect, etc...criteria, or if it was not worthmessing with. It sounds like it is. I'm sure I will wind up buying more of thehigh dollar stuff, but as cheap (if you can call it that) as rough is, I mayget some and dimension it myself, if for no other reason than I have the tools,and enjoy that kind of thing.
