Does anybody know who retails 4 x 8 or 4 x 4 sheets of bending plywood? Since I have no experience with this, I will have to ask a naive question....Is bending plywood flexible plywood, or is it plywood constructed to allow steam or heat bending? I plan to veneer the curved surface. Thanks

Please could you tell me the best and easiest why to bend plywood. The size is approximately 24" * 50" if you could tell me the best method. Either glueing each sheet togeather or steam bending the hole sheet etc Thanks.

Dear Kevin,Bending plywood is flexible plywood, usually comes in 1/8", 3/8", and sometimes 1/4". Unlessyou are a cabinet shop and can buy direct from the warehouse, I suggest going to a qualitylumber yard and have them order it for you. All lumber yards have access to plywood warehouses and can get it for you.SincerelyDarryl Keil: Does anybody know who retails 4 x 8 or 4 x 4 sheets of bending plywood?

I have worked with bent plywood but have yet to experiment with compound bends. Eames chairs are a good example of this. Does anyone know of instructional techniques of achieving bends on multiple axis.Any other info pertaining to glueing, jig building, and routing would be appreciated too. thanks
