oak plywood
really is not all oak.Just the side or sides(top and bottom) that will show are.It is a verneer over various types of sub woods.Most would never know this unless you could see the edges of the sheet.
Oak plywood being a bookmatched verneer shows to the skilled eye that it is a man altered product,as you can see the same grain pattern over and over on thew 4 x 8 plywood sheet.
Red oak ply was apx $32-38 a sheet in summer of 2007.White oak plywood , if you could find it, was $90 + per sheet.Big differance,as most of our white oak is shipped overseas…
