Wood Panels

Post by sawmill »

I am looking for some suggestions on what to use these panels for. They are lamanated balsa wood. I can get all I want some small and many 10 wide X 50 long 2 inches thick. Put your minds together and give me some ideas. There is a whole warehouse full

I would make one of Phil Bolger boat designs out of some, if you like boating or fishing. I have heard of some people using rigid insulation or 1/4 inch ply under-lament to make some models. I always wanted to try making a Diablo model, maybe someday.
