    Plywood wanted 1/64” thickness

    Good idea, I’ll certainly give this a try. The plywood is fairly rigid and good to work with easily cut.

    Plywood wanted 1/64” thickness

    It is a pad type but it lines the complete box and any fitments. Tried card in the past but maybe it wasn’t 350um but not familiar with card specs and thickness. Hobby shop have card so may try it again. Thanks

    Plywood wanted 1/64” thickness

    The plywood is a base material to cover with thin foam, the shape is then covered with leather or suede forming a lining for boxes. The plywood is strong enough to hold the shape until glued onto the inside of the box.

    Plywood wanted 1/64” thickness

    Thanks for the reply, the ply isn’t cheap I think it’s just gone up by about £10 apparently due to Covid. Postage costs are rediculous.

    Oilstone identification

    Thanks for the replies appreciated. The stone, now cleaned a bit more, has a slight green tinge to it and when scratched (on the end) the scratch shows white. It feels very smooth but I’ve no idea on hardness or the type of stone.
