3MM Baltic Birch Plywood - B/BB Grade (6pk) for Arts, Crafts, and DIY Projects

Baltic birch plywood, prized for its appealing light color, boasts a uniform grain, smooth texture, and exceptional durability. Originating in the Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, this versatile material is primarily produced in Finland and Russia.

With its botanical name Betula spp., the Baltic birch tree is the source of this esteemed plywood. Featuring an odd number of plies, the two outer layers display a vertical wood grain that runs lengthwise throughout the sheets, while the inner plies alternate between horizontal and vertical grain, which enhances the product's strength and resistance to warping or moisture damage.

Compared to most plywood, which is often painted, Baltic birch is attractive enough to stand alone with light sanding, varnishing, or staining, making it a popular choice for cabinetry and other furniture. Its pleasing appearance and suitability for a variety of projects, from cabinetmaking to building construction, have made it a go-to material for crafters, DIY enthusiasts, and professional woodworkers alike.

The 3MM 1/8" x 11-13/16" x 11-13/16" (blade kerf) Baltic birch plywood, available in B/BB grade, is designed to withstand the demands of production woodwork. Its thick layers are intended to easily cut through saws and laser cutters, ensuring smooth and precise results for a wide range of applications, including arts and crafts, school projects, DIY initiatives, drawing, painting, wood engraving, wood burning, laser projects, and cabinetmaking.

When working with Baltic birch plywood, it is essential to measure each piece carefully before starting any project to ensure optimal results and a seamless finish. The material's exceptional qualities, coupled with its versatility and ease of use, make it a top choice for both professional and hobbyist woodworkers.
