It is supply & demand thing!
I don't think it's necessarily the plywood mill making a huge profit - how many profit makers are there in-between a plywood mill and consumer?
It looks like 15/32" x 4' x 8' plywood sheet is $56.25 at a local H.D. currently so any of my possible plywood projects will be postponed until....
Yeah I need to build some shelves in my new shop. I had some of the framing material but I had to buy 2 sheets of OSB and 6 8' 2x4s. $115 OUCH!!!What's really screwey is that so many new things are being built in spite of the costs. I saw several new projects today while running in to town and back. Also saw a few people pushing cart of gold laminated boards out though the registers at the Blue Box store gold laminated lumber repository. $100 smackers for three boards didn't seem to be stopping them.
Meanwhile, I'm pulling nails and screws out of old boards and treating them with kid gloves until I need them again.
I found one in my basement a couple weeks ago. Felt like Yukon Cornelius.If it's not been said, they want crazy prices for 12/2 Romex. I was going to buy a couple rolls back when it was 50+ bucks. Ooops waited too long.
