local source for maple plywood

[Ryan Hovis]

I can't find this stuff anywhere :confused: having no trouble finding oak in western PA, but I need some 3/8" maple for a box bottom. help!

3/8 is an odd size for "standard" plywood around here.

Menards stocks maple ply here in 1/2 and 3/4 and it is not bad stuff. Most local lumber yards can order it from their regular distributors.

Also if you carefully look through the birch you can often find a piece that you won't be able to tell the difference.
