Where to buy Birch Ply?

[woodpig]

Most readily available plywood seems to be pretty poor stuff, anyone know where I can get 4'x2' sheets of Birch Ply in the west Surrey area?

If you cant get any locally then ordering on line is a good option...

Sure your having to pay P&P but your saving a fortune in petrol & the P&P is for 1 or more sheets

Here's one that I found for 6mm and I'm sure there are plenty of others

4x2 is your problem, if you can take 8x4 full sheets I'll suggest a few places.

South London hardwoods will cut a sheet into 4 and send it to you or you can collect if you don't mind comming to my side of Surrey.

Anyone in North Birmingham can find Birch Ply at Great Barr Sawmills, on the Aldridge Road, just Behind ASDA.
They also stock Sundeala board which isn't stocked everywhere, and if you buy a full sheets of any sheet goods, they also provide a free sawing service. The other day, I even managed to get them to saw a large off-cut into car-sized pieces.

(The walking stick works wonders!)

I have nothing whatever to do with GBS, other than as a fairly regular customer. Some of their timber is OK, but the hardwood is in limited quantities and is priced above usual levels.
