Lo Voltage Bill of Materials
DO NOT PURCHASE ANY MATERIAL UNTIL YOU READ THIS SECTION.
LUMBER: White oak, mahogany (Philippine or Honduras), spruce, or
similar types of wood common to the area for boatbuilding can be used. The wood
should be knot free (small solid ones are permissible), properly dried, and
free of splits. Lumber designated as 1" is "four quarters"
lumberyard stock, usually finished to 3/4" net thickness. All widths are
NET and the noted lengths allow for cutting to fit.
PLYWOOD: All plywood must be intended for marine or exterior use.
Interior grades are NOT acceptable. Marine plywood has higher grade inner
plies, while the exterior grade cores may be of inferior material with inner
voids not apparent to the eye. In most cases, the glues used in both marine and
exterior panels are the same. A solid core marine grade is preferable, although
an exterior grade can be used with the understanding that unseen interior voids
may cause problems. Douglas-fir plywood is acceptable, but high quality Okoume,
mahogany, or other decorative veneer (usually imports) are preferable. The
grade of the exterior veneer of plywood panels is identified by the letters A,
B, and C with A being best, etc. The best face of all panels should be the one
exposed. Any patches on lower grade veneers should be on the interior,
especially on the forward bottom. Check the PLYWOOD LAYOUT on the Full Size
Pattern sheet 1 of 2 for method of utilizing the listed plywood to obtain the
various parts.
LUMBER: NOTE: The following listing is for the basic hull only of the
LO VOLTAGE for ELECTRIC DRIVE with curved transom. The types of lumber listed
are as used on the prototype; spruce for light weight and mahogany for
appearance. As stated in the prologue, other species can be substituted.
Although the sizes are noted individually, it is best to group the lumber,
purchase "random/random" (varying widths and lengths) lumberyard
stock, and rip and trim to the required sizes.
CHECK ALL SIZES TO THE WORK PRIOR TO CUTTING.
