I agree with the bend over and hope they use Vaseline, especially
here in the Austin, TX area. They are thieves here when it comes to
jacking up prices.

Marine plywood is not well defined in every day life.

Actually HDO (High Density Overlay) for outdoor signs is a good

substitute. A lot of times the sign company will give you a small piece
if thats all you need. The best source is a company that does BLM or
Forest Service signs.

When my supplier opens up the unit imported from France, he is in
the marine plywood section of the warehouse.

Seems the French are major suppliers of marine plywood.

BTW, if you need marine plywood, don't waste your time trying to
find a substitute.

Just bend over and hope they use Vasoline.

I built the Done Deal out of Chudaply, a Russian Birch. Indestructible but
heavy.

Birch is not a marine wood. Rots.

Don't tell my cross beams. They are 17 years old now and show
no signs of rot but I don't want them to get ideas. Teenagers
you know...
