    Yukon Lumber at 520 W.22nd St. in Norfolk is where I go. I am building a 16 foot Glen-L model.

    The plans are very clearly drawn and include information on step-by-step assembly and bill of materials. Glen-L can supply you with all the hardware, epoxy and glass tailored to the model you are building. There is a monthly newsletter, as well as a website board that you can receive online help from. I would probably be lost without the "Boatbuilding with Plywood" book that I purchased from them. I haven't had any problems so far, other than trying to find the time to devote to the build.

    I got a sheet of 3/4 in fir marine grade from Yukon Lumber in Norfolk, 89 bucks. Called several other places but Yukon was open today. They also have teak but it was 214 a sheet, and not what you need from what I've been told, teak has oils in it which make it difficult to glass. R/Chip.
