Tales of plywood woe...

Since 2009 it has been very difficult to find good quality (BS1088) marine plywood. Since the recession, people here have been opting for the cheaper plywood, which mostly comes from Malaysia. There is a vast difference in quality (mistakes, gaps, poor glue) between the two, and we are finding it hard to compromise. We just purchased the last batch of Joubert and Plysorol in the country as far as we know, & who knows when more will be shipped in. But we think this batch should last us until completion... At least for the important bits anyway.
