Man that's some thin stuff. Expensive too. I would have to play with it to see if I can get it laminated to luan or something using contact cement like we do with formica. I would need 5 sheets at $70 each. Plus the luan and the contact cement. I have a source for 1/8 inch oak that I am going to go look at today and compare it to the sample I took out of the trailer.
Could be done though I think. I've done a heck of a lot of formica in my time so I don't think I would have a problem with anything but the price LOL...

Nobody said this was a cheap hobby. Especially for purists, lol.

Nobody said this was a cheap hobby. Especially for purists, lol. Never heard me say it either. I made a whopping $0.78 on my first trailer. And I thought I was doing pretty dang good after using it for two years. Cost is really not an object on this 59 Shasta. The 57 Westerner is another story. I kinda have to watch the budget on that one.
