[k4lmy]

I know there is an answer out there somewhere but have not spotted it yet. What is the weight of 6 mm and 12 mm BS 1088 Okoume 4 x 8 sheet .. Interested for shipping estimation.

Thanks..

a single sheet of 6mm will weigh 20 pounds, and 12mm will be 40 pounds....depending how shipped it may have sacrificial packaging around it to add to the weight.

Thanks .. I KNEW the WBF would pull through.. What I am looking at is about 20+ sheets of 12mm and 6 of the 6 mm.. so no problem with the Ram 2500.. doing the job.. just in the planning stages.. Redwing 23 lofted and waiting to get the pole barn finished..

thanks Henry

I assume the K4MLY is a call...where ya residing, and where are you getting the wood.

Hi Chuck.. priced some from Boulter plywood while up in Mystic last week.. and with the quantity he would give me something off or shipping.. but thinking when I am ready --to do Harbor... up your way.. any thoughts or cheaper places?

Yep, had the call since 57 or 58.. While in High School.. then commercial since 64.. worked in Land Mobile Public Safety..
