Dear Halfdome,
I read in a recent post where you had used 1/8" Baltic Birch. Where were you able to find that, which size sheet, and a what cost?
Thank you in advance.

Look at a real lumber store , not a box store. Baltic birch come in 5' x 5' sheets most of the time. I have seen it from $20-35 a sheet. Most real lumber store can also get, birch, maple, cherry, & oak in 1/8" x 4' x 8'. They will run $30-80 a sheet. I got my cherry & maple for $27 a sheet.

I got my 1/8" Baltic Birch last summer at Industrial Plywood located in Lewistown and Reading, PA for just $9.25 a sheet (5'x5'). Beautiful wood at a bargain price!

Guy, be careful with the 1/8 Baltic birch. Some of it will have football patches on both sides. YOu need to be able to look at each sheet.

Guy, In the PNW CROSSCUT LUMBER Is the best place to buy Baltic Birch since they have good prices and let you pick through the whole pile if you like. A year ago I paid about $11.00 for a 1/8"x60"x60" sheet.

I'm not Danny but you might try 'Real Lumber' in Riverside. They carry every kind of plywood that you can think of.

Oops, that's the one. I believe they also have a store in Orange County. Maybe it's Anaheim.
