Re: :: The official TOOLS thread ::

No, boxing board is very soft wood, most of the time its hog plum trees...and its usually wet as once it dries its easily deformed and not sturdy at all You can look into construction ply or galvanize for a temp shed Even with ply isn’t there more than one type ?

Can I use it to build a temporary shed that would be sitting sheltered under a galvanized roof? Instead of buying 2x4s in Bagwang. The other project I would use it for is a...

Guys I am looking for 1/2" or 3/4" inch boards for tabletops. What is my cheapest option? Ideally, it should be able to take some water but I can also cover it with cheap vinyl or similar.
