BALSA BLOCK

have you googled balsa wood?

A quick search found several suppliers of 1x4 inch stock in lengths up to 48 inches.  Cost for something that size is less than 10 USD

I know of several places but a personal contact or having done business with someone beats Google any day. Thanks

 HELLO cruiserbuilder !!! HEY , where are you hailing from ? The reason I ask is ,it seems to me that I saw balsa in larger sizes at my local HOBBYTOWN ! There may be some shop in your town that caters to woodcarvers and that is DEFINITELY a place to seek out . Hope this helps ------tankerbuilder

you can also look at Michaels they have balsa wood that's sold by the model rocket's.

Thanks tankerbuilder. I found the one I thought was lost and it is already glued up. I suffer from a dearth of hobby shops nearby. Lots of airplane r/c but nothing else. Is there a way to contact you with some other problems if you do not mind?
