TNT Bill of Materials
The following list of materials is intended to be a general guide only.
Before ordering any materials, the text and plans should be checked for
possible options. All lumber listed as 1" stock is to be standard
"lumberyard four-quarter" material which when finished may vary to
somewhat less or slightly more than 3/4" in thickness. All widths are NET
and all lengths allow for cutting to fit. All lumber used should be first grade
free from shakes and knots. Although oak (white oak), spruce (Sitka variety)
and mahogany (dark red Philippine type) are called out in the listing, lumber
typical to the locale and of similar types and weights may be substituted. All
plywood is to be marine or exterior grade. The marine-type is preferable as the
inner cores are solid and thus the panel has more structural integrity.
Douglas-fir is satisfactory with the quality of the exposed faces of the veneer
being designated by the letters "A" or "B". The
"AA" grade panels are always preferable, however, "AB"
grade is acceptable. All plywood should be a minimum of three plies. All
fastenings should be bronze or hot dipped galvanized ferrous metal. Brass
fastenings are not advised nor are the electroplated screws commonly sold in
hardware stores. All screws are to be of the flat head type intended for wood.
All nails are of the ring-type nail common to boat construction. Unless
otherwise specified, all wood-to-wood joints are to be glued with a waterproof
or highly water resistant glue.
CHECK ALL SIZES TO THE WORK PRIOR TO CUTTING. Abbreviations used are: Mahog =
mahogany; Sp = spruce; DF = Douglas-fir; PW=plywood; Ext=exterior;
MAR=marine.
