Default Looking for 1/8" solid T&H veneer

I don't think it is considered veneer when it is 1/8th-inch solid but
I can assure you no one manufacturers it. You might find someone to
make it up for you but I'd hate to think what you would pay. If you
need it that badly and nothing else will do you will have to do what I
did (only for a section around my mast step): Mill it yourself if you
have a planer. If not buy whatever you can get, probably 4/4 and have
someone else mill it. You can then edge glue, remembering all the
preparation you need to glue teak (scrubbing with acetone, allowing to
dry) and you might even want to use biscuits as I did though I was
using 3/8ths. You will also need to select yhour glue carefully. I
used West System epoxy though urethane, resourcinol, or even the new
Titebond III might work. Moreover, you will not find decent holly
easy to come by. Most all of the T&H plywood today is made with maple
or other light-colored hardwoods.

If you find some anywhere in the world, let me know. I have looked for
6 years. Thare ain't no such animal. You can get teak and "holly"
veneered plywood but the face veneer is only about 1/32nd. I ended up
resawing and planing some solid 8/4 teak and real 4/4 holly to 3/16 and
laying it.
