The J Perkins 3/8 x 1/2 x 36 Strip Spruce offers strong, straight-grained timber for modelling projects where dependable strength-to-weight is essential. Supplied as a precision-cut strip, it is well suited to structural elements and general scratch-building in model aircraft, boats and other craft applications.

Spruce is a popular choice for longerons, spars and stringers thanks to its stiffness, clean machining and reliable gluing characteristics. This piece provides a practical size for framing and reinforcement while remaining easy to cut, sand and finish.
