Tongued and grooved OSB

I'm on the border of Derbys/Notts.
Try as I may I cannot find a supplier of the above product inspite of working through Sterlingboards (the manf) list of suppliers.

Can't find a supplier on ebay that delivers nationwide either.

Can anyone suggest a supplier that stocks this and will deliver?

The Non T&G stuff is available from several local places, but not the T&G

PS, I'm not expecting many replies to this :D
I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

  • Phone your local Jewson. If they don't have it will probably be able to order it for you.

    A google for "TNG OSB" implies Wickes will do it.

    Yes it does, but they don't :beer:
    Lots of leads and implied stockists but no one I can find has it.

    Travis Perkins list it but none of my 3 reasonably local branches hold it. I can get it to order, but the cost is excessive to say the least.

    If you have the machines, you could use a 6mm biscuit cutter in a router to form your grooves (obviously on both abutting edges) and run 6mm ply through a table saw to make the tongues.
    Forgotten but not gone.

    Thanks guys but although I have several routers T&G ing 14 sheets of ODB is out of the question.
    Like chipboard it is very abrasive stuff, it would need a few sets of router cutters and more patience than I have.

    There is a premium to pay of about £70 for the pukka stuff, in this case I don't thing there is an MSE option:D
