mark a Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Hi all A question for the chippys and joiners,can you use pocket hole joinery on 10mm ply. The reason I ask is because I'm going to be boxing in cabinet and safe. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peck Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Are you talking about "pocket hole" or "biscuits"? As far as i know the pocket hole system uses an 8mm drill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team tractor Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Unless your using something like birch ply I wouldn't bother anyway as ply is rubbish of late. Pu glue and nail gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loriusgarrulus Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 We are lucky. We have Richard Potter at Nantwich. They stock birch faced ply also, beech, ash and oak faced. Also all sorts of hardwoods too as well as softwoods.Good hardware shop on site too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabbers Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 If you are finding a safe, it doesn't matter what the inside of the cover looks like. I'd use 20 x 20 pine glued with the fast setting glue to strengthen the joints on thin ply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used them when needed for the last 25 years plus - now I feel old :( ATB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
