Good Questions: Who Will Cut my Wood in Bklyn?

Hello AT,

I'm making shelves to fit in a recess in my wall and I'm using plywood because I like the edge. I can do everything myself, except cut the wood.

Can anyone suggest a good place to get plywood cut to size in Brooklyn? I've heard that Home Depot and Lowes can't be trusted to be precise. Has anyone tried them? I've tried a local lumberyard before and didn't have good luck with them either. I don't have the means to transport full-sheets of plywood to the cutting place, so if they also sell plywood, that would be great.

Thanks! Kim

Warning! Sid's is now closed, they filed for bankruptcy.

Although this article is still Google #1 for 'cut lumber ny', look at the timestamps on the comments above.

I just called Bruno's Hardware at 95 Court St, they were very helpful on the phone and claim they sell and cut lumber. Fingers crossed.

Midtown Lumber on West 25th street does accurate cutting real quickly, priced very fairly.
