Hi Allen et al:

Plywood is more dimensionally stable than solid timber. My biscuit joined
plywood supers are the same size and shape as they were originally. Some are
now about 7 years old. I would not go back to solid wood.

The commercial frames are all over the place in length. For a given box I
can find frames that will not fit in, some that are right and some that fall
through. The ones that fall through are Pierco one piece frames which are
shorter than any of my wood ones. They fit nicely in some commercial boxes
that were made with 7/8 " thick material.

                                    Best regards

                                    Donald Aitken
