I am building a set of face frame book shelves, and plan to use maple for the face frames and 3/4" plywood for the cases and shelves. Everything will be painted white, so the type of wood used on the plywood faces is only important as far as creating a smooth looking finish and being easy to work with. I figure baltic birch would work just fine, but I am looking for advice on the best/other options. Thanks!
