Well today I finally got around to ripping all my strips for my soon to be guillemot. After six hours and a dozen slivers it is all ripped! In total I did 76 , 20.5' quarter inch cedar strips and 25 , 8' quarter inch pine strips. Alot of strips for one day ( and alot for one boat but now I have a selection and the freedom to make mistakes). Thanks to my good friend for all the help today it got done. Next step bead and cove guess we'll see how long that takes!(when I get to it).

Dave.
