A Thousand sheets of balsa.....
Hi Paul, as we talked on the phone last night, I have a large selection of balsa wood for sale. the pile is from a personal collection of a friend, and some of the wood is 40 years old, and ALL of it is hand selected. The density ranges from 4# all the way to 12# with the majority being in the 6 to 8# range. sizes range from 2x36 to 6x48 in thickness of 1/32 to 3/8. I have priced all the wood according to weight and sheet size, and while the prices might be a little more than what you will find in the stores for the most part, the quality warrants the price. If you wanted a sheet of 1/8th x 3 x 36 in 5# weight, that would be $2.80 in 4# it would be $3.64 and in 9# it would be
$2.02 with sheets prorated between 5# and 9#. any sheet heavier than 9# is priced at the 9# price. There are also 7 boxes of rubber powered kits and hand launch gliders too..............
I am located on the north side of the Arlington Airport, 3 blocks from the ultralight airpark entrance, on 42nd drive NE. and my house # is 18825 Phone number is 360-435-3734 days, and 425-327-9642 after 8 pm.
Get it while it's here, cause when it's gone, it's gone.
