Thread: Timber and ply for making boxes for wildlife

That's awesome you' re doing that!

Have you thought of approaching a Bunnings? I think you'd probably find them very helpful?

cheers, Ian

We have approached a few bunnings stores and other retailers and are waiting for responses . Tile importers have donated some ply so far. As well a number of private donations.

cheers

It would be worth asking the sheet goods suppliers for cover sheets as well, would be fine for making these boxes.

Happy to lend a hand to make some as well if you need some help.

Hi Sean,

I see ply would be ideal, but do you require any hardwood timbers like 6x1, 8x1, 8x2, etc?? I have some piles of downgrade around the mill that might be useful to you. I am in Rochester so it is a bit of a drive but you can have the timber if it suits.

Cheers,

James.
