Today I received a new catalog from Sloan's Woodshop and it had a message that because there is a worldwide shortage of Baltic birch plywood they are having a difficult time in finding and purchasing it and that the price is constantly changing.
What would create such a shortage? Is it supply and demand, or is it a shortage of birch? Are there just a few companies making it?
I like using it for a couple of reasons. First, it's inexpensive (or at least it used to be), it's easy to work with, and it can be stained or painted to look like other wood species, just to mention a few.
I hope this is a short-term problem.
Any information you can share is appreciated.
