Anyone know where to find sheets of melamine???

uf_g8or Jul 26, 2003 09:29 PM

I'm going to build a new snake rack and need some melamine. I have checked Lowes and Home Depot but neither carry sheets (4'x8') of melamine. All they have are precut small shelf size sheets.

Anyone have any suggestions or know of any place to find it?

Thanks

Did you ask them? In my area (Florida) both of them carry it. It is near the cabnet grade plywood.

Yes I did ask them (several different people at a few different locations)...and unfortunately they all act like they have never heard of it. I did however find one guy at Lowes that said he would call a company that supplies them with melamine shelving to see if he could get the sheets for me.

Other than that...I haven't had much luck.

OH WELL

Up here where I'm from the Home Depot has 4 x 8 sheets of melamine. The guy even cut the sheet to the exact size shelves in needed. My rack is 4'x2'x16" with 7 shelves and 1 sheet was enough to build all that. Hope you're able to find something,
good luck.

Have you thought about finding a way to connect smaller sheets together to make a larger sheet. I know this sounds ludicrous, but if you can't find what you're looking for, it's either that or make your enclosure using something else. Sorry I couldn't be of greater help.
