shadow clad... thats the rough sawn ply aye? if so yeah that shit will out last cement fiber by a long shot... but i will say it is loaded with sianide arsnik etc to the max, working with it is bad news, hate to be around it in a fire.


yeah... grown to fast, good luck in your hunt for the right timber.




yes and yes, you talk great sence and no your shit, My last job was building all JH houses, I saw these packs you mention but fuk me if it wasent obvious till after it was installed. I believe stacking incorectly after being made did not help matters... well so the JH reps from NZ and OZ told me.
Shadow clad etc is h 3.1 treated the carrier is a solvent,very distintive odour
