Did you think it might be time to buy a new one? Or, oil it? NOT
with WD40.

and home cheapo was out of 4x8 birch plywood, <snip>

Then stop buying there, go to a real lumber dealer.

A crappy shop day is still better than a great work day.... Tomorrow will
be better for you I'm sure.

The local Home Depot has five-ply birch plywood for ~$29. The "real"
lumber dealers are asking ~$65 for seven ply. I know it's apples to
