Power lam help

[Cody Cantrell]

I have never used a power lam before and was needing some guidance.  I am fixing to glue up a BBO and want to use a walnut power lam, will walnut work and what are the dimensions needed?  Thanks for the help.

Cody,

walnut will work fine and try 3/16 in the center tapered to a feather edge on both ends.  I like 18" in my blanks,
