I figure this is the best nerd section to post this thread since it apply to materials and the nerdy types who use them and know where to acquire them. Does anyone know where I can find this style of very high grade, void free thick ply, Baltic birch ply material with the bright color 1/8" outside plastic laminates like they use for Holey board pedalboards?

I contacted them but got a very generic response and no luck locating so far. I've only been able to find the weak and thin phenolic exterior plys similar to what they sell at Rockler and Woodcraft; this seems waaaaayyyyyyyy better. I'm building a few new jigs and molds and this seems perfect. I'd buy it in larger sheets if needed; just trying to find the source without having to fire up my vacuum system and make my own. I want it in the bright red and yellow colors.
thx.

. I did my kitchen in bamboo plywood and still have a bunch leftover. It is super hard and flat. Excellent for what you're talking about, but obviously not coated.
This exotic stuff still has a plain wood surface, I think. James seems more interested in a board with a hard and durable plastic coating, like he showed in the link. The manufacture says: "To make the boards even stronger and lighter, I reduced the thickness and put a bulletproof high pressure laminate on the top and the bottom."
, and these both have a plain wood surface. That's why I said 'if you forego on the colour ... requirements'. At least I mentioned a supplier of void-free ply, suitability for James to decide. If the outer layer is more important for his application, maybe a kitchen top in bright red and yellow is more suitable, but I wouldn't know where to get that.
