Balsa Wood
I just got my plans for the Ziroli Panther.
The kit cutters have a backlog of about two months, so I guess I'll do it myself.
Who has good wood at a reasonable price?
The Balsa USA has a nice site, easy to use and get an idea of what the costs will be.
I don't see anyway to specify the grade of wood though.
Thanks

RE: Balsa Wood
You might try Lone Star Balsa out of Lancaster Texas. They have multiple grades listed on their site and I've heard good things about them from my fellow builders: http://www.lonestar-models.com/
Balsa USA use to show an option for contest grade balsa that you'd pay an extra 30%. But it doesn't look like that option is avaialble anymore. Their loss.....
Cheers,
