[NSRCA-discussion] Balsa Suppliers

[Gene Maurice]

For Your Information.............

I just received an order of wood from National Balsa in Ware MA. The main
component of the order was 30 sheets of 1/16 x 4 x 36 "Contest Grade". They
advertise their CG as being 4 to 7 lb. In the stuff I received the lightest
sheet was .376 oz. (4.51 lb.), the heaviest was .657 oz. (7.88 lb.) with an
average of .522 oz. (6.26 lb.).

The edges are fairly true, pretty much free of knots, and the thickness is
consistent.
