: Hi Everyone, this is my first post here . I am thinking of building
: a kayak a little down the road but thought i would start asking
: some questions. First, I live in northeastern Pa. and was
: wondering if there is anyone in my general region that has built
: a kayak. Also where do you purchase good quality wood. thanks
: for any help guys.

I use www.woodfinder.com, but figured you're near enough to new england that someone would say something. Might also just look in the local (big city) phone book for hardwoods. I know cedar isn't a hardwood but the good stuff is usually sold by the hardwood suppliers.
