I know they are available from the Thing Shop but figured I would check here and see if someone has a set they don't use any longer. Drop me a line at [email protected]. Thanks in advance. BTW there are currently none listed in the classifieds and I have been looking for about 6 months.

No leads on duckbds for sale. I did make my set. Ran about $70-75 in Oak from Home Depot. 1x2 stock, waterproof glue and a nailgun. Pretty simple if you are handy.

I just sent a stash of old growth redwood that was rough sawn into 1x2's to a cabinet shop to get plained. So my duck boards will be "custom" too.
Here's some picks of the material and the sawyer from Northern Calif. Nice and dry.

It sucks to be an artist. Of course it would be easier to buy stuff already to install. I just can't do it. Brick wall

BTW nice work there Ziggy.
