Timbers for boat building

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I always use water stable timbers for making lures, like those used in boat building.
Not all boat building timbers are suitable for lure making, because some are used for cabinet work. If it's suitable to make a timber boat hull from, it's probably a good lure making timber.

Here's a couple of interesting sites:
