Pedal-It Bill of Materials
DO NOT PURCHASE ANY MATERIAL UNTIL YOU READ THIS SECTION.
LUMBER: White oak, mahogany (Philippine or Honduras),
spruce, Douglas-fir or similar types of wood common to the
area for boatbuilding can be used. Almost any good grade of
lumber is adaptable in this type of craft. The wood should be
knot free (small solid ones are permissible), properly dried,
and free of splits. Lumber designated as 1" is
"four quarters" lumberyard stock, usually finished
to ¾" net thickness. All widths are NET and the
noted lengths allow for cutting to fit. E.G: Lumber listed as
1" x ¾" will be ¾" x
¾" net size; while that listed 1" x 1"
would net ¾" x 1". Both would preferably be
ripped from standard 1" lumberyard stock. NOTE: The
types of lumber listed are as used on the prototype; spruce
for light weight and mahogany for appearance. As stated in
the prologue, other species can be substituted. Although the
sizes are noted individually, it is best to group the lumber,
purchase "random/random" (varying widths and
lengths) lumberyard stock, and rip and trim to the required
sizes. CHECK ALL SIZES TO THE WORK PRIOR TO CUTTING.
Abbreviations used are: Mahog = mahogany: Sp = spruce.

PLYWOOD: All plywood must be intended for marine
or exterior use. Interior grades are NOT acceptable.
Marine plywood has higher grade inner plies, while the
exterior grade cores may be of inferior material with
inner voids not apparent to the eye. In most cases, the
glues used in both marine and exterior panels are the
same. A solid core marine grade is preferable, although
an exterior grade can be used with the understanding
that unseen interior voids can cause problems. All hull
planking is 4 mm thick okoume or similar type veneers.
COMMENT: Standard ¼" Douglas- fir plywood
was mocked up on the prototype; making the required
bends was iffy - one made it, the other fractured. The
thicker material is not advocated. The shroud is
optionally made from 1/8" "door skin"
luan plywood with exterior glue. These panels are
inexpensive, but the quality is open to suspicion. The
letters "A", "B", and "C"
identifies the grade of the exterior veneer of plywood
panels. The best face of all panels should be the one
exposed. Any patches on lower grade veneers should be
on the interior, especially on the forward bottom.
Check the PLYWOOD LAYOUT on the Full Size Pattern sheet
1 of 1 and these instructions for utilizing the listed
plywood to obtain the various parts. Abbreviations used
are: OK = okoume or equal. DF = Douglas-fir; PW =
plywood; Ext = exterior; Mar = marine.
