Hi all, I have caught cabin fever on the Kenai, Alaska!

4 feet of snow out and enthusiasm burning hotter than the leaky old wood stove in my cabin.....

I want to laminate all the critical structural members of my stork like bush plane ............
I want to do it this way for 2 reasons

1)simply do to cost trouble involved ingetting un-obtanium..simply meaning its tough .getting what I need....AND that is considering I live within shoutin distance of living sitka spruces...LOL

Primarily the way Im thinking is that my experience with laminates is VERY impressive!

Any builders tread this path before me?
I have read about a presenter at Oshkosh on "big box wood 2017" that likes to do it this way...
