I was pretty shocked when I saw it close up, because the plywood had somehow got shattered at the front. Birch plywood is very strong, but I suppose I was pushing it a bit to use 9mm ply here. It’s not the oldest 2F on Scoraig using that plywood but it definitely taught me something. Always more to learn!
