That’s so funny! You can go ahead and secretly call it a pod. I really like plywood too (see next post) and am generally surprised when people don’t like it – did you see the comments on the AT post about that kitchen? Whoa. (Link at bottom of this post.) I guess it’s the association of wild grain plywood with “cheap” construction materials that they can’t get past. Personally I like the look of plywood – all those amazing semi-moire patterns – and I also think it’s a good way of utilizing the smaller trees grown these days in tree farms, instead of old-growth lumber. Are you going to post a photo of your cabinet-pod?

tiny, but feels huge…

thanks for this…
