hi guys. will those carpentry use plywood mix with block board to make their cabinet ? like the cabinet "bones" inside all in block board and the side will be in plywood ? Are they the same ? Will there be anyone using every single pieces of plywood even inside of the cabinet ?

plywood also got many grade. if customer request, i also use marine grade plywood for all the carcass body.

If let say without requesting much, usually they will mix plywood and other ?

And I'm not sure is the picture clear. Does the photo underneath refer to block board ? Is there any durability issue if use block board as the "bones" and side us plywood ?

block board is using the core as solid wood albeit low end solid wood. i guess its ok for carcass use as you are just making a box. i also use it most of the time, but as solid wood maker, i also use other options like rubber wood, merbau board, nyatoh panels etc.
i would not use blockboard for solid wood furniture. wrong application for blockboard.

I see. Because initially I thought they will use every single pieces of plywood to make entire cabinet until I found out that unfinished product is still show as block board. If this would not affect the performance of the cabinet, then would be fine.

I think what we can't accept is you mention using plywod to make cabinet, end up the frame all inside is chipboard only the door using plywood. then might as well mention chipboard cabinet rather than plywood cabinet.

i did mention to the kitchen industry people dont simply say something its not. now malas to repeat already

another stupid term is they offer nyatoh kitchen
actually the door is nyatoh, the carcass frame actually is some crap mdf/chipboard material.

Very true. Don't simply say that when you did not use the material fully but mixed. Just tell people door made from what and carcass made from what.

But business being business. They would have want a maximum profit margin, thus mixed with other cheaper material and claim that whole thing is Nyotoh.

What can't be accept is the charges is still high. Normal people will just think since price is higher so should be nothing wrong and all should be the same material until they find out the truth.

I also heard block board are some kind of low combination of low quality wood and at times block board come with some hollow parts will it affect the overall performance ?

what?
if thats the case, why aluminium kitchen cabinet suppliers can explain in detail that their carcass cabinet is either proper aluminum or acp or hybrid etc? eager to open the door and show whats inside?

price too low?  u know how much is the raw material cost of a 10k kitchen or not?  biggrin.gif  u come to this industry then maybe your eyes will open big big.

Hah I think is the matter of how much is the profit margin they want .
