Default Woodstock spars

Does anyone know where I might find enough Douglas Fir suitable for
use for spars for the Woodstock 12 meter wing? I need pieces in the
12ft range. Does anyone know where I can have these spars made if I
dont want to do them myself? This project doesnt go very far without
spars!


One group that still uses long lengths of Douglas Fur is the sailboat
industry. Try M.L.Condon Lumber, I have obtained long lengths of both
high quality fur and spruce from them. I am sure there are other boat
suppliers - check in Wooden Boat magazine for advertisements.
