[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 430041, member: 21536"] I agree with Johnny on using exterior grade ply, as long as you fully protect it. The extra cost of marine grade, in my opinion, is just not worth it for this kind of application. Exterior grade will have voids -- you can fill the ones you can see. The boiled linseed oil will help prevent the surface of the ply from checking. Glue the two pieces together before coating with the BLO/thinner/varnish mix. Obviously, a waterproof glue should be used. [/QUOTE]
