Hi everyone! Just a quick midweek catchup for you - not a huge amount to share as I haven't really been in this week yet, due to slaving away at the coalface of online store changes, but thought I'd share what I had.
Catch you at the weekend.
Peter
p.s. prices quoted in the vid includes my discount...
Edited to add: I popped into the yard to settle up this afternoon, and they told me that 18mm Birch ply simply isn't available; they're OK for 15mm & 22mm, but not 18mm - and the last they had was £170/sheet + VAT; so in that context, you can see why the Maple's priced as it is. 🤷♂️
Sometimes,
Entry Level Tools just can't hack it 🤣🤣🤣
Holy C*** £180, I hope that was for a Full Sheet and not just the length you showed us on the floor. Having just found a great if not very muddy wood yard near me, I've just paid £100 for four 2.4M lengths of 25mm solid Beech about 10" wide and it is great quality. By my reckoning that's not much more than a full sheet of 18mm Birch Throughout Ply 😁, just edge gluing it together could get a bit tedious 🤣.
regarding birchply alternatives...last time I visited my wood supplier, he said he will get birchply with an eucalyptus wood core...should be cheaper than birch...I think, I'll give it a try as soon as he receives the delivery.
Do you think you have enough dominoes?
£30 tax?!?! Holy crap... 😱 I won't complain about material costs again.
