plywood cabinet shop drawers - 2 different plywood choices - which would you choose
Hello,
I bought some 12mm Baltic birch plywood to build some shop drawers.I miscalculated the amount of material needed by only one or two drawers. looking around I have two options I have available in my shop. The first one is 18mm Baltic birch instead of 12mm ( no picture shown). the only reason I'm hesitant to use this material is it is not exactly flat. a bit of a bow in it. I don't know how much is considered acceptable
but also have this plywood 1/2 sheet. it is 1/2" thick with 9 plys with a maple face. I don't know if white layers are softwood or hardwood. I'm thinking the material is flatter. I'm wondering if this could be used as a substitute for the Baltic Birch. which is a better choice. can this be used for drawers?
what do you think
