Wood

In the last couple of weeks I've been screening the market for the plywood which will go into the construction of crossbeams, decks and cabin. It is very difficult to find suitable, good quality cedar plywood, here in Rio de Janeiro.

Price is not allways an easy reference for quality. Surprisingly the best batch I've found was also the one with the best price. The difference was about 20%!

The 10mm sheet was priced at R$ 115, and the 6mm sheet at R$ 78. The cedar plywood is actually mixed with other woods. It seems not possible to find pure cedar ply. The one's I've bought, are composed by 5 internal sheets and 2 cover sheets. That seems to be as good as it gets.
