In Response To: Re: Poplar? (Jim Ryan)

These are the two points I liked. Maybe I could use thinner strips (5/32"?) to adjust the weight some. I got a piece yesterday for something else. After a bit of searching I found a 10' straight grained white piece. It is neat stuff to work with (as you mentioned). Sand and saws very well.
