I bought ply from them before. Had to return several pieces and the ply ceiling was shocking.
Lots of others on here had problems with them.
oh ok, I bought some and it was fine
Just checked, 5' should be wide enough, but 10' is too long to go in a SWB. Would they cut it if I gave a length? Cheers.
Send me DIMS what you need, I will cut it for you pal.
Evening all.
I am just about to order a few sheets of plywood to begin making my interior panels. I can source 8' x 4' (2440 x 1220mm) sheets in both 3.6mm and 5.5mm for a very good price from a local woodyard. These will cover all of the side panels but I was hoping to find sheets large enough to do the ceiling in one piece.
By my measurement the existing ceiling panel is 1320 by 2556 mm (to the front join) so even the 2440 x 1220 sheet would need three pieces.
I recall someone on here finding a supplier for larger sheets and wondered if anyone can help please?

Sorry to dig up an old thread. I just bought a lovely large sheet of 5.5mm ply to make my roof. Made my template out of the old 2 part roof etc.
Placed it over said 'large ply'.
Large ply to small. I. Any believe I didn't measure.
So.....can yih find a large enough ply sheet anywhere in south wales?
Any ideas?

What size was the said large sheet
You can make Halo roof from 8 x 4 sheets with no join. This is my LWB.
Any builders merchants should be able to order in 10 x 5 sheets, most will only stock 8 x 4.
I'm sold on that idea.
How did you fix the roof main panel and surrounds up please? Also what size packer did you use?
It's looking great
I fixed main roof with screws that go into a plastic bit that pops into the OEM holes.
For the packer it’s either 10 or 12mm. Enough to stick LEDs to.

And the carpeted and lining stuck on after?
It's looking great. Im on it now.
Making a grooved one.

Transformation Of An Ex Working Van
Nice one mate. I will be picking your brains again on the rear door lights. I've still not decided how to do it... But getting there, slowly.
