Re: Plywood for Fine Furniture

I am currently renovating a bedroom/soon-to-be- baby's room. I've used maple and birch plywood to build a small bookshelf built into the room's knee wall and for the built-in wardrobe and cabinet.
One innovative thing I've done is I've cut a 4x8 sheet of maple plywood into 8' long 4" wide strips that I'm using for baseboards. To cover the exposed plywood edge I've used 1" x 3/4" strips of cherry (to match the cherry hardwood floors.) It saved me a bundle over using solid maple for all the baseboards.
