Funkmeister, et al:

Thanks for the following url: http:/www.u-boatarchive.netDesignStudiesUSHands.htm


I was scanning the U-3008 section and found the following statement: "The shaft bearings are inlaid with either lignum vitae or a type of phenolic material. When
the former is used, the lower 1/3 of the bearing is with end-grained wood and the
upper 2/3 is with flat-grained wood."

Regards,

ROBERT M.
