Well, just placed an order for some balsa from Tower.
Bob--Don't know if they have the ability to hand-select balsa. When I scratch-built my King Altairs I wasn't as informed as I am now, nor did I have a digital postal scale. I ordered much of the wood from Tower without any specifications. Going back now and weighing some of the left over wood compared to Jeff's kit wood from Balsa USA, some of it was nearly twice as heavy[X(][>:]--it all adds up.

Will they, (Tower) grade and send you selected wood--if not, I hope it is better than I received?
