Hi Ryan,

Thanks!

Its a Briggs - see pictures above.

I was just curious as my wood expert highly recommends against oak in combination with metal, but does add that perhaps the north American oak is different

The cloth tape you are talking about really is pretty much cloth tape and it was what Ford used for anti-squeak. I also found oak in my Murray bodied 1930. Is yours Briggs or Murray? Not sure but maybe they used different wood? I think the prints specify 3 different varieties.


I haven't done any insulating to mine yet but I'd like to. I'll have to follow along and see what people recommend.
