otterine Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 If anyone building a Dura-Craft kit has some of this left over and doesn't plan to use it, I'll take it off your hands. It's wood (pine maybe) trim 1/8" x 11/32" x 24". These strips are made from different colors of wood spliced end to end. I'm not looking for the ones with the triangular splices, just the ones like these. I'm not sure if the ones I have are from the Heritage or the old kit I have random parts left over from. I'm happy to pay for shipping plus a little for the trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrchob Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Not really familiar with Dura Craft but Manchester Woodworks has a section on Dura Craft compatible parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesp2k Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I have some pine & poplar scraps I can cut to this exact size...PM me for details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterine Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 Thanks, everyone! Mike - I am not looking so much for the precise size as the precise look and feel of these - mixed up colors and textures, rough surface. I have a bundle, but I need quite a bit more for what I have in mind. Since it is rather shoddy wood, I figured people here might not have bothered using it at all if they built a Dura-Craft. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contrary Housewife Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I may have a few strips left over but mine is all finger jointed /\/\/\/\/\ . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterine Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 Finger jointed - that was the phrase I couldn't think of!!! :lol: No, I need the flat joined boards, but thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I've got a box in the garage with leftover DC pieces in it. I need to get in it anyway to see if I have any leftover shingles for the rehab I'm doing so this gives me a nudge to do it. Of course it's on the bottom of a pile on the top shelf, so when I can get someone to help me today I'll look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparklepuppies Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Mine are spiky splices too. But they have different types and colors of wood, and I have several strips, so if you want any you're welcome to them. Sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audra Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Brae - have you tried finding a cheap DC kit on craigs list? I have seen some for around $15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterine Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 I have thought about that...but it might not have the type I'm looking for...and what the heck would I do with the new house?!!! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesp2k Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Are the butted pieces random lengths or all the same? & if all the same length how long are each of the pieces that make up the 24" piece? Do the pieces have to be a total of 24" long? Do the pieces have to be glued together or can they be in shorter lengths than 24", then glued together by you? Also my thickness sander uses 180 & 80 grit sandpaper, the 80 grit creates deep score or scratch lines in scale with something like weathered barn board... What I'm getting at is - I have tons of scraps of different wood that can easily be cut to any width / thickness in random lengths &/or random widths. If in separate pieces you can glue them together on a flat surface like floor boards to a sub-floor or butt joint glue them together 1st then glue them to a stud/rafter or joist type frame...?
