Benhardt57, what's your ply? The Baltic Birch?"

You're getting close to winter there anyway. Enjoy your indoor project! My company has been doing business in Australia for about 5 years and I've been anxiously waiting for my turn to go. Maybe some day.

 

I found a wholesale warehouse that was willing to sell me the plywood. They called it Russian Birch, but I believe it's the same as Baltic.

Thanks Ben.

 

For what it's worth, I have made up a couple of test samples of the Hoop Pine ply which I have hung on the back fence. One is just left raw, the other has been given a few coats of pure Tung oil. Thought the results in 6 months or a year or two might be of interest to those who have trouble getting the good Baltic Birch and are looking for an alternative. I'll do the first update in around 6 months.
