  3. Hello My name is George and I am from Ontario, Canada. I am a new member here so please excuse me if this is in the wrong section. I am planning on building a 1/12 scale rowboat skiff that will be remote controllable. It will be in the water BUT I would like to not paint the outside of the hull but rather either stain the wood or just seal the wood with a clear epoxy. What would be a Good wood to choose for a lighter finish BUT be able to bend to the hull shape and have a tighter grain pattern? I have No band saw just a standard table saw BUT with winter approaching, that is stored and I would need to buy cut and partially sanded pieces to work with. Can anyone suggest a affordable type of wood to use and from where in my area to get it? I don`t plan on making museum quality model rowboat. Thanks for your Time in reading this and your help. George
  4. Hello I am New to this site and I hope you can help me with what I am after. I am planning on building a wooden 1/12 Remote Controlled rowboat skiff. In stead of painting the wooden hull I would like to have the hull either lightly stained OR clear coated to show off the wood. I don`t know what wood I should use that is both strong, flexible and has a small grain pattern for this scale of boat. Any suggestions, tips, Canadian Sources of the wood, would be Greatly appreciated. Thanks for your Time in reading this and your help. George
