A friend made some wardrobe doors out of a sheet as a stop gap, waiting for some oak faced ply to arrive. 3 years later and they are oiled and still hanging. The ply has been used for something else. I’ve seen it used in kitchens too.
I’ve got a 5m x 2.2m run with 6 shelves to do in one lounge and another 3m x 2.2m run in the other. The cost of ply would cripples us.
This stuff’s basically fake Valchromat; I was gonna make a few of our kitchen fronts from it, but my partner vetoed it.
I scavenged some offcuts to test oils, was very easy to achieve a cute finish.
