I try to stay well clear of any shop with `marine' in the name! Isn't the Mister Plywood chain in Melbourne? I think what you're after is usually called bendable ply.

Agree with last reply, anything incorporating marine in the name appears to be a licence to extort. Being a sailing man I avoid 'Marine' outlets as they charge far too much. We have a ply specialist in Lilydale who stocks all grades of building, furniture and marine ply at a reasonable cost. I cannot recall the name but I will post back when I find it if you don't find it on www.yellowpages.com.au (http://www.yellowpages.com.au) first. )D

Unfortunately I visit the USA on the odd occassion and get to do a little fly fishing while there but I have not yet been atttacked by a http://ubb.ubeaut.com.au/ubb/smile.gif or a http://ubb.ubeaut.com.au/ubb/wink.gif
I have been posting on a USA net for some time and it took me a while to find out how to generate all the smilie faces. I am however intrigued by the HUGE one on another post and would love to kbnow how it is done so I can outdo the yanks.
I find the US residents are OK until they disagree and then they can become quite irrational and starting making references to the real world (USA) and generally putting down the rest of the world.
What makes it better is that I consult to US agencies in my field because I am better at it than some of them. http://ubb.ubeaut.com.au/ubb/biggrin.gif
