Walnut or walnut veneer board
Discussion
Looking for some walnut veneeer board or shelves to use for a small project in the house. Was thinking about using floating shelves, which would do fine, but most of them are no more than 280mm wide and I need something at least 330mm wide.
Ikea did one but they appear to have discontinued it, so does anyone have any ideas on where I might be able to get something suitable?

I've not used these guys, but they are in London. S.L. Hardwoods do either sheet veneer, or real wood.

What are you making? There are pros and cons of using MDF depending on the project.

Solid wood is much nicer than veneered board, plus you can cut it any way you like and not worry about covering up exposed board edges.

But presumbaly considerably more expensive. Worth a look though. I may try and get some prices off them in the morning.
Thorogoods charge you once for the lump of wood and then extra for any planing/machining you want - that's usually when it gets expensive. Hence if you can take a stock size and finish it yourself it shouldn't be too bad.Gassing Station | Homes, Gardens and DIY | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
