Baltic Birch Deal

[Dan]

Our local Woodcraft has 1/4"x12"x12" Baltic Birch for $1.95 each. How about yours?

I saw the email this morning. If that is B-BB grade.  Ie no patches one side it is a good deal.

I buy as a 60"x60" sheet which yields 25 sheets 12x12 so if you can buy full sheet is usually a much better deal.

The current CDN price is $36 CDN up $10 from 3 weeks ago.

I have been told that 1/8 and 1/4 BB may not be available come this Fall.  I was limited on my last purchase of 1/4 last to 1 sheet as they don't know when next order will arrive.

If you use a lot of 1/4 now might be the time to stock up for Christmas.

I buy the maple 1/4” plywood from Lowe’s. It comes out to 62.5 cents for a 12” by 12” piece.

I recently bought a Home Depot 10 pack of 1/4" Purebond Maple Plywood (1' x 1'7") for $38.37.

Thanks for the tip.  I found Purebond 1/4 " at Home Depot in Canada both maple and aspen.  About $50 for a 4 x 8 sheet.  

Question how is the core to cut and do you get tear out on top or bottom sheet?

Thanks

Just bought 16 12x12x 1/8” B/BB from Amazon.ca  for $45. Free shipping.  I need the plywood for my Covid critters which I sold over 150 last year.

I haven't used it yet - life keeps getting in the way of scrolling fun - but when I do I'll post my results.
