    It seems that CT&N has closed their storefront. Does anyone know where to get the materials they were selling? Do they have an alternative outlet that they supply?

    I need a few copper nails for a Richardson Aquacraft I am starting to work on.

    I've a few pounds of 16g x 3/4", if these will work for you.

    I believe a few of those would do the trick. I'll measure to be sure. Thanks! Are you back up in the North Country? I'll be up there this weekend.

    Yep, we should be around. Luckily the Canadians let us pass through on our way back from Oz before closing the border in March :).

    Of course, even luckier may have been to be stuck in Tasmania by not escaping in time... :p

    You know your fasteners. 3/4 it is... ab0ut half inch of planking and rib and about a quarter clinched over. I'll give you a call.
    Taz would be a great place to be stuck. One of our sons went to UTAS. We found out years later that he bought a junk Audi and drove it all over the island. The story came out when we found the plates from it in his detritus.
    It's on my list of places to go. One of his buddies spent some time here so we have a place to visit and stay.
