Yep, plywood gets a bad rap: it's incredibly strong stuff. Aircraft plywood can be used to build entire aircraft, marine plywood can withstand harsh weather conditions for years, and birch or hardwood plywood can look very pretty.
- jordanb 9y agoSome plywood is amazing. Most is crap. Generally the stuff you buy at home depot for $25/sheet is crap. And people tend to confuse plywood with OSB, MDO, MDF, etc. And while marine plywood (BS-1088) is great stuff, and fir marine plywood is also pretty nice stuff, it's not magic. BS-1088 is will rot in a morning dew and fir checks horribly. You have to protect it carefully and keep it protected.
