HI - I'm looking for some 1/8" Baltic Birch Plywood for some projects on my laser. I'm in rural Arkansas (husband moved us here from Texas but I was able to bring my laser with me <grin>) so will probably have to have it mailed to me.

Any suppliers able to help me out? Any suggestions?

Thanks so much for any help...

PS - you are welcome to email me directly if you wish - ellen@riverswood.com

Try Sloans, they're in Tennessee so shipping shouldn't be too much. http://www.sloanswoodshop.com/plywoods.htm

You can give Memphis Hardwoods a call they are out of upstate NY and ship to me in southern NJ for a reasonable price and quality is good.

Have you looked up "Plywood" in the yellowpages? If it's not in your local area, what about the larger cities around you?

Gary, I think you meant http://www.memphishardwoodlumber.com/

The link you posted went to a generic search site

I don't know if they ship to your area or not, but I get mine at DSI. They are the 5'x5' 1/8" for about $8 a sheet.

Their site says "6 state delivery area". Looks like they don't deliver to NY state. Oh well...

I second Sloan's. Their prices are great, they will supply sheets already cut for the laser, and their service is the best. They do NOT take 'net orders, so be ready to call them, but the ladies who answer the phones are very good.

Hello,
I am in Northwest Arkansas, Rogers, Arkansas and I have been getting 1/8" Baltic Birch here at Garners Building Supply for $12 a sheet 5X5 feet sheets.
Their number is 479 636 4151 and ask for Jack Johnson.

Hope this helps.

You're paying too much, Jimmy. Our local lumber products has 5x5 sheets for $6.75 each! I'd find another supplier if you can!

Take a look in the SMC classifieds. There are a few of us that may have what you need. http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=46741
