    Question Flattening Ply

    G'day Ppl,

    I am wanting to know
    What else might I do to Flatten 6mm Ply?

    Weighted down on a Flat surface, so far. Concave down.

    It is only a slight Bow,
    so I am NOT all THAT concerned.

    G'day Ivan,

    I had the same problem just a short while back and It was suggested to me to give it a light spray with water and clamp it/weigh it flat for a few days. I was using 12mm ply and I gave it a go and it did flatten it down a fair bit.

    Hope this helps
    Geoff
