Hello,
Thanks to all those who offered advice previously on the subject of pineboard.
As promised, here's the update;
I picked up two sheets, had them cut in half, stuck them in the back of my car and then drove for an hour and a half home.
So, I thought that you would be interested to know that the 10mm is easy to work with, does not cup and split in the way that the redwood plank did previously, and most importantly, has a flexibility that is super to work with when making a small item.
It beats plankwood 'hands down' - well it certainly beats the plankwood that I used (which was hand picked by one of the staff from a very reputable timber merchant).
Hope this information is useful to someone, and thanks for the previous replies which helped me to make the decision to use pineboard.
