I have some 3/4 inch solid teak and I want to use it for my instrument panels on my 74 montuak. I had planed to plan it to 1/2 inch, but the original was 1/4 inch plywood. Should I plane the solid teak to 1/4 or 1/2 inch? I know solid wood tends to not be as strong as plywood. I also plan to use it under the helm and throttle.
