Howard gave a talk on prop carving at the 1st Brodhead I ever went to (in'97) -- I got his drawings for his prop with cross sections & laminationoutlines. On his drawings, Howard calls out maple for the light lams &walnut for the dark lams. -- (6) lams total -- starting from the hubside,1st (2) lams are 3/4" thick, with the maple next to the hub. Next (3)are 1/2" thick -- last lam. is 3/4". The drawings are layed out for 76" x42", but he also had angles for 76" x 40".Mike C.Pretty Prairie, KS----- Original Message -----
