Ben,The only thing about the plywood being "cabinet makers wood", is that youwould need to be sure it was made of exterior ply and not interior ply.Also, it may be that in "cabinet makers wood", the plywood may have knotsand voids in the inner plys while the surface plys are beautiful specimensof wood. This would make it weaker than aircraft grade plywood where theknots and voids are cut out and filled with solid wood inserts.Rodger ChildsPiet in progress________________________________________________________________________________
