May last photo was of hull which I built from balsa wood scraps as I usually us bass wood for hulls then I happened to find some craft sticks in the only store open in Canada are Walmart's any way sticks are 1 inch by 10 inch so figured if I glued sticks onto balsa wood hull will be much stronger P/S I know photo is pretty ugly but with a little filler & lots of sanding hull should be o/k
