I need a 12-foot by 8.5" piece of 3/8" ply. The box stores only carry
8-foot ply stock. Already I have a 4x8' sheet of 3/8" ply. Is it
possible to make a 12-foot piece? I have most common tools.




Or you could buy 1/8 stuff, cut out extra bits from 3-4 sheets and
do a glue up to make a larger piece using staggered joints. Getting
a press to clamp it together might be an issue.
