Why I’m making breeze block screens out of the best plywood in the world…

I have been using a product called Finland Ply for about 30 years. It was originally created to be the strongest material for concrete forms, but also can make very nice furniture, work benches, and room dividers.

I love the look of the Palm Springs Modern homes in the “Alexander Tracts,” such as in the Rancho Las Palmas neighborhood. Since I don’t know how to build a masonry wall, but I DO HAVE several CNC machines which can carve anything I draw on my computer, I thought, “Why not make Breeze Block design with this totally waterproof, acid-resistant plywood, which comes in a beautiful range of colors?”

So I did.

My house in the Hi Desert in California is a sort of test lab for experiments with advanced wood working.
