So the build calls for "Baltic Birch" I just looked at the 3/4" x 4' x 8' Baltic Birch Plywood and it seems it's a special order product by my location and it's almost $70 a sheet plus shipping whatever they will try to charge me for that too! Can I get away with these 2 options or any other recommendations in the Chicago land area?
Here's what's available locally at Menards 3/4" x 4' x 8' UV Prefinished Birch Plywood (13 ply $45 )
This plywood features a clear, thick semi-gloss epoxy acrylate finish and a four coat ultra violet coating system.
Dimensions: 3/4" x 4' x 8' Shipping Dimensions: 96.0 H x 48.0 W x 0.75 D Shipping Weight: 63.0 lbs Brand Name: Shelter Forest International .............................................................................................................................. Or 3/4" Classic Birch Plywood - Wood Veneer Core (13 ply $40) This plywood features a C grade white birch face with .25mm face thickness and a 3 grade birch back. This plywood is sanded birch.
Dimensions: 3/4" x 4' x 8' Shipping Dimensions: 96.0 H x 48.0 W x 0.75 D Shipping Weight: 63.0 lbs Brand Name: Shelter Forest International .............................................................................................................................................................. What do you guys think? Thanks in advance! |

Spend the $70 a sheet (I buy from Menards).
'C' has knots in the wood (junk). |
