More then welcome to join in. I'm just across the river from you.

I can make the trip to go pick up the plywood and fir if it's good tomorrow. That will get me and the wife out the house if anything.

I just need to know how many sheets that are needed.

would be great if he could get the 14 or 16' ordered in in time(to save 1 hour of build time), but time is running out so whatever we can get, I'm game...

If anyone needs the money in advance for the wood and can take paypal I'd be glad to pay in advance...

whatever it takes tomake this happen let me know guys...

Thanks

I have extra glue as well. Ordered some from the aircraft spruce website and was about to call them and cancel bc of back order status. Told BP to get me the glue and got confirmation of shipment from aircraft spruce before I called. it arrived today.

I need in on all of the lumber order, how many sheets of plywood do we need total? The guy I called last week said he could get the 4x8 sheets with about a 3 day notice, I am hoping that his lumber yard and hammers guy do not use the same supplier, but I can call him back tomorrow, if Felecinia tiger fan friend does not work out, but we are gettin short of time

Sorry so late for posting ya'll as I've said this week will be one heck of a busy week for me.

THe list I had of people needing wood are as follows:

BP
Wick
Pepperidge
Tigerpaw123
eng 08
gorillacoco
choupique
Da Hammer

Fish my guy appears to not be able to get any of it so If are able to pick up what is needed for me that would be great. I will send you an e-mail to talk about payment. I am sorry things didn't work out on my end, I sure thought I had it taken care of where it would be very easy.....

Anymore people? What I will do is wait till tomorrow to go get it to make sure we have enough. If you don't see your name, post it up.

AS far as payment, that can be done when y'all show up.

10 weather farcast doesn't look good. But, this is Louisiana and the weather people are only right 10% of the time.

WE are going to make this happen one way or another.

We can make it happen if you want to come.

As far as drinking beers, well that depends how I feel. Pirogue building will come first this time around.

Walked back to my pond and I'm starting to have a fish kill. Ran my boat to try to put some air in the water fast. It helped in the past.
