: I hope this is the most challenging part of boat building: I've been trying
: to get 4mm 1088 okoume in RI (an abundance of marine supplies, wouldn't
: you think?). My local lumber yard said they could get it (and deliver),
: but by the time I ordered a couple of days later, the distributor was sold
: out. I did some calling around and I'm told 4mm isn't the most popular
: around here and "don't know when we'll be gettin' some more. . .,
: it's imported ya know" I think a trip up to my old stomping ground in
: Somerville is in order. Now, if I can only fit a couple 4x8 sheets in my
: brother's minivan . . .move over kids! Finding the materials has been a
: fun sub-project all its own; I think I've been to some dingy lumber yards
: and managed to convince most of RI that I don't know what I'm doing. But
: I'm havin' fun!
