Well, I cant find any cedar plywood in my area. I was planning on using it for the bottoms of my cedar drawers for a dresser. Only thing I can find is 1/4" closet liner which is OSB like. Not going to work for a dresser.

Any suggestions to an alternative bottom? I have the cedar stock milled for the actual drawers, just need the bottom material.

Shiplap the bottom using thin cedar. Install it so the length of the bottom boards run the width of the drawer.

How about laminating some shop birch ply with cedar veneer?

One dresser? Mail order...UPS. Brown will bring it to you.
