Where to buy wood for hull?
 

Hi everyone. I live near Tampa Florida and was wondering if anyone had suggestions on where to buy wood for the construction of rc boats. I would consider an online source if there is nothing local. Funny thing is I would use paint sticks as a last resort. I have heard of popsicle stick boats but as anyone ever made a paintsick boat? I am just building a simple barge style hull with very few curves.

Thanks Dean

You might try Graves R/C out of Orlando. Decent prices and fast shipping. I've rec'd orders within 24hrs. from them. I'm in Lakeland. Just put in their name, they should come up.

Thanks, I looked over their website and video.  They seem to be knowledgeable a real hobby shop unlike that big chain everyone knows about.  I really need to get building this boat already looking at the parts I have is killing me LOL
