I have managed to find a source for clear rough sawn northern white cedar. I had it planed and told them to stop when it was smooth enough to make an almost seamless glue joint. When I saw strips to the 1/4" thickness, this will leave me with 7/8" strips instead of the usual 3/4". Do you think this extra 1/8" will create large "facets" that I will be unable to smooth out without getting the hull too thin? I have heard that builders are required to cut thinner strips for the tight curves. How wide and how narrow is typical? - Scott E.
