Plywood cut to size
Birch plywood for cabinets and furniture, poplar for lighter work, in 8x4 and 10x5. Grain direction matters on ply: tell the optimiser the board has a direction and it will not turn your parts to save a sheet.

Sheet sizes come from our own catalogue, so what you see is what the saw
will cut from. Put your parts through the optimiser and it uses these exact sizes.

Questions
Which way does the grain run?
Along the long side of the sheet unless stated. In the optimiser the "length" of a part is the direction along the grain.
Can I have the offcuts?
Yes, if you ask when you order. Otherwise they stay with us.
Is 10x5 always worth it?
Only when your parts are longer than 2440 mm or when it saves a whole sheet. Run both board sizes through the optimiser and compare — it takes seconds.
