: Rather than laminate a
: coaming, I thought it might be simpler to simply fabricate it
: from plywood like Tom Yost shows on his site. Three coaming
: rings eats up a lot of plywood. I don't want to short myself a
: large piece of plywood if I need it.
One way to use less plywood on a flat coaming is to stagger cut the rings and overlap them
in the center for strength. If the coaming is on an inverted "V" shape deck, just butt
and glue them at the deckridge. Since the front and rear rest / attach at the cross sections,
strength is not an issue.
Regarding Lowes, here's a pic of 10ft clear (S4S) boards I bought recently for a stripper project.
This wood is very light weight, and has good color variation. The Sea Bee SOF (single-chine) in the
wood frame builders manual is also built with "clear" redwood from Lowe's.
