You can get it from a variety of places online, but you have to pay for
shipping, of course. http://www.walllumber.com and http://www.hardwoodstore.com are two good ones which just happen to be local to me. You'd get much better answers if you told us where you live. Somebody who lives near you may be able to give you some suggestions. Josh |

Sorry, I guess that a location would help. I am in Lexington, KY I do
know that Loews is cheap, but they do not have good hardwoods choices. |

Look up cabinet shops in the phone book, call them and ask where they get
their plywood, then call the suppliers until you find one that sells retail. I have a local supplier that would like to see you pull up in a truck with a company logo painted on the side but they grudgingly sell to the public (read great unwashed). But if you know what you're looking for, you can get it. "Bigdog" wrote in message oups.com... Hello, Does anyone know a cheap place to get hardwood plywood.

Hello, Does anyone know a cheap place to get hardwood plywood. The only place around here is Lowes or Home Depot. Thanks If you want cheap hardwood plywood, then go to Lowes or Home Depot.

I agree. The BORGS have a wonderful selection and for that you pay a
premium. It is sometimes worth the convenience, but when I want to buy in bulk, I go to a local lumber yard. THe selection is far less, but the overall quality for the money is far better.

At least that's what I do -- they're only a few minutes from where I work, so I occasionally drop by during lunch. |

I work right around the corner on stewart rd, I will have to swing by one day on my lunch break and check it out. |
