As for Sitka Spruce, stay away from the advertised companies and look
in the phone book for specialty lumber companies.

One thing I would add to this. If you buy wood from a Canadian outfit, there
was (and still may be) a prohibitive tariff. If they label it "Aircraft
Parts", no tariff. I know this goes against the advice of not telling them
what your going to use it for. Mebbe you could tell them your going to use
it for a boat, but want it labeled "Aircraft"????

Oh what a tangled web we weave. . .
