Your Spruce gives my Aircraft great strength

James D Verified Purchase

Capstrip 1/4" X 5/8" - 6 Foot

Excellent quality. No knots or imperfection no warping very well packaged nidamage

I ordere the material and it was delivered in excellent condition in the timeframe noted in my invoice. The Spruce cap strips were secured neatly and the packaging prevented any damage. I have been using these for the Young Eagles Workshop Wing Rib Project. Our Eaa Chapter 501 plans on June or July to initiate these workshops and the spruce is of great quality. Thanks, Ron

Great perfect

Best spruce Ive used. Straight, grain matched, perfect condition - and perfectly wrapped with inside-out tape so the long pieces were held in place, but the adhesive side of the tape didnt come in contact with the wood. When I need wood, Ill come back here!!

AA&S remains the most reliable and timely source of high-quality parts and materials Ive ever found. I look forward to enjoying many years of designing, building, and flying, secure in the knowledge that the materials keeping things aloft are top-notch -- and will outlast me. Thank you for being there for us through thick and thin. Stay safe, and be well.

Thanks to all of you that make it possible for me to purchase your products.

Material received was straight, accurate and with good grain.

Light, straight, and straight grained.

I use these in building 1/4 and 1/3 scale RCI aircraft to prevent splicing wing spars etc. and where structural strength is required, the lengths are adjustable in purchase so there never short, the cut sizing is always perfect. SUPER PRODUCT

got here promptly.

Cap strips were perfect in condition and packaging. No surprise there. Wish I was closer to the Facikity.love My Aircraft spruce.

Have been purchasing these strips for quite a few years now. Projects require perfect material. Charles in lumber out did himself this time. Virtually every stick was good! From Claudia in service to the picker and shipper excellent transaction as always.

Excellent

Dang. The quality and Percision of Spruce is absolutely amazing. Tolerance is spot on. Grain is consistent and very linear. Thank you Aircraft Spruce artisans.

Great product, I use it for construction of my larger scale RC aircraft where wood is required, its sized exactly and it’s extremely clean. Only drawback for me is slow shipping., if the product is listed in stock it takes about 10 days to receive it .

great quality, and the order arrived quickly!!

Appreciated how well the product was packaged for shipping to prevent any damage. Great product and it arrived in pristine condition (not always the case with other vendors whose product I oftentimes receive crushed because no care or forethought was put into how to best protect it from rough handling). Was also pleasantly surprised that my order arrived far quicker than projected.

Milled to close tolerance, packed securely and arrived safe and sound.

The pieces were perfect and well packed. I was extremely pleased.

Delivery was delayed several times but the spruce arrived eventually and it is beautiful - top quality.

Product as stated, well cut only had a few that were a bit twisted but was no problem to correct. Will be buying more.

Nice quality. Only if UPS could deliver to the correct address. Delivered 3 houses down.

Hard to get perfect pieces on the smaller cuts but Aircraft Spruce goes above and beyond to get it right. Nice, tight grain, consistent pricing. Overall good quality products. Excellent customer service

Clean cuts worked out perfect

I have come to expect perfection, and this shipment was just that! Exactly (again) as ordered. Additionally, I had to get Customer Service involved, as I had mis-ordered - user error. Your Customer Service people are as high quality as your products! Exceptional!

As expected. Delivered pretty quick

Best quality spruce in the US.... Super fast shipping.. Best service!!

Best quality... Great service.. Fast shipping!!

Lights and strong wood. Great service.

It doesnt matter what size you order - the wood will be flawless, without exception. I could spend hours trying to find even one piece of wood this perfect. And the wood is perfect in all ways, not just free of flaws but it is also dimensionally perfect. The people at Aircraft Spruce will not compromise quality, and that is a huge reassurance when you are up in the air. I dont use questionable parts in my aircraft and I have 100% confidence in the quality of this wood. It is worth it.

Very good product, excellent customer service. Always get a response to concerns.

Good material good delivery

These capstrips get a 5 star rating from me because of the state and quality of the wood itself. I am reviewing the 1/4 x 1/4 capstrip but I have also gotten the 3/4 x 3/4 capstrip in some nice sized bundles and the wood itself is flawless aircraft grade sitka spruce.

Exactly as described and quick shipping. Thanks!

finished a little rough

I received this wood as a replacement for wood that was damaged (I presume in transit). The replacement wood is good quality though I note one side has two areas of impact damage clearly not from transit as the box was in very good condition. This area will be cut away when milling the parts so I can use the wood. There are quite a few rules behind aircraft grade lumber and I would prefer Aircraft Spruce (AS) be more careful in their milling and handling of the wood. I give AS high points for quickly replacing the damaged wood.

Quality product as always. Only four stars due to shipping time. Realize I place relatively small orders but still takes awhile. Generally worth the wait!!! Claudia is the best, always good communications.

It was fine

Product is excellent. Time to prepare and ship is poor service.

See comments re 3/8 x 1/4 cap strips. Same problems encountered here. Wood quality was good for both items but dimensional problems made them unfit for purpose.

I realise that it is difficult to machine wood to precise dimensions but I was disappointed to find that the cap strips provided were oversize by as much as 1/32 in the cross section dimensions. The net result was that the sub assemblies I made with the strips would not mate with the final assembly of the finished item. A friend with a planer and a table saw was able to run off more accurate replacement items (not ideal when we are supposed to be social distancing).

Several of these are not usable. The grain is not good and they will break when bent just a little

for a company with spruce in its name, I have to say ordering wood is not a smooth process. first the size quoted is not exact. I know they say nominal but a better job needs to be done on informing what you receive, and what you are looked at to size yourself. second, for even a very small order, it takes nearly four weeks to receive it. better plan way ahead for your project.
