Ken; capstrip stock is planks that have defects here and there but since it's intended to be ripped into capstrips for ribs or framing, the defects can be cut out and worked around. The wood itself is structurally sound, it's just that the plank is interrupted by defects. For spar stock the entire plank must be clear and straight.
