Hey I was at the local Hornbach (home inmprovement store) store today and they have very cheap shelf materials. Its basicly solid beech, birch, pine or oak. Its made of Id say 30x4x4cm (maybe a bit longer then 30 but still short) strips that are laminated much like we laminate our cores but shorter strips.
How is the fact that the strips are so short affect things.
What I was thinking was to rip it and then laminate it so that the clued "seems" create a symetrical pattern. This way each core will be like the next one.
What do you think would it work to make the cores out of this?
I think I could save like 70% of the core material price doing this.

Shelfs as cores...

That was done by BigKam on Project Pallet, and it worked great I believe.
The cheaper you can get your core material, the better, and shelving should work well if you offset joints when you laminate the strips together. You might even duplicate Project Pallet if you can find some decent pallets lying around.
