Boat Plan Service Is Progressive Step By The Pacific Lumber Company

'luild Your Own Boat" ii the title of ap attractivi pimphlet just issued by The Padific Lumber Company, San Francisco, as;part of their newlboat plan service. Here is the first paragraph in this pamphlet: "With our designs if you can use a rule, saw a board, drive a nail, and use a screw driver, you can build a boat you will be proud of. Our plans are so complete in their detail, and the drawings so clear, any advanced school boy with the aid of his Manual Training teacher can build any one of the boats we feature."

Believing that there is a great demand for boats in sections where there are no boat manufacturers, The Pacific Lumber Company have developed this plan service, so that anyone wishing to build a boat may go to his retail lumber dealer, purchase sufficient wide clear Redwood to build a boat, and obtain free the plans and specifications for the boat of his choice. There are six different designs to choose from. These working drawings explain fully how to go about building a boat, from the very first operation until the boat is ready for launching.

In order to keep this service from being abused, The Pacific Lumber Company require the dealer to purchase from them a certain quarrtity of wide Clear Redwood, in order to obtain the actual plans and specifications, and a generous supply of the pamphlets for distribution among his trade.

Redwood is particularly suitable for boat building on account of the fact that it can be obtained in wide widths, consequently requiring fewer joints in the construction of a boat, and joints remain tight because of the low factor of shrinkage. Most of the boat builders on the Pacific Coast, and many of the larger boat building companies in the Middle West use Redwood exclusively, because of its light weight, ease of working, and its great paint holding quality. These builders have found also that Redwood does not absorb water as much as some of the other woods, so if the paint is damaged it does not become water-logged.

The Forest Products Laboratory reports show that Redwood ranks high for boat use because of its lack of shrinkage, stifiness, and because it is light, springy, and easy to work; not affected by heat or cold, wet or dry conditions, and will not rot or check.
