|
Hey Reader, I used to think plywood was plywood. Grab whatever's cheapest at the store, make some quick cuts with my cheap saw and dull blade, and get building. Then I'm dumbfounded as to why my project looks like it's about to fall apart! That thinking cost me hundreds of dollars and ruined more projects than I care to admit. Turns out, there are 5 specific mistakes that make plywood projects look homemade by an amauture instead of handcrafted by a professional woodworker. And once you know what they are, they're incredibly easy to avoid. The big ones that got me: → Buying the wrong grade (wasted so much money here) But here's what really frustrated me - nobody talks about this stuff.
