    Cladding without tongue and groove?

    Does anyone know if you can get cladding without the tongue and groove. I'm looking for some thin wooden planks under 100mm in width and cladding is all I can find. But I can't use most of it as it has groves. thanks

    Thanks for answering. The junction box is going in the loft void so will be accessible. To be honest I'm not to keen on the look of modular plates so it would probably defeat the object. Do you think modifying say one of the switches from this with the parts from a 13A light switch...
