I've built 3 kayaks and a canoe and have relied heavily on this forum for advice and guidence. MUCH THANKS! Now I've turned to building furniture for my children. I want to use 3/16" sapele wood strips glued on top of plywood base for a table top. Will there be a problem with expansion and contraction of the sapele on the plywood base? If so what are my options to prevent it?
