Black Vivs

[Richard77]

Does anybody know where i could find black laminate coated chip board from so i can build my own black vivs? so hard to come by, everything seems to be beech, walnut or oak etc? tried the obvious B&Q, Wicks but to no avail, there must be suppliers somewhere...

hi
would something like this be a help,a conversion. ?
Black Ash HiFi Stand on eBay, also, TV Hi-Fi Cabinets, Living Room Furniture, Home Garden (end time 06-Mar-09 18:29:30 GMT)
i tried looking at places like freecycle for you,but i couldn't seem to find anything,
so i checked into ebay.

Thanks for the reply and taking the time to look for me, sadly the ebay thing isn't really what i'm looking for, I'm just looking for the sheets of wood so i can start from plan if you know what i mean, can't believe its this hard to find some. I know of pet shops that sell black vivs but the charge more for them being in black, thats why i'm looking for my own supplies so i can save myself a packet.
Thanks again

I am sure you can buy the veneer and attach it yourself?

Thanks Lutus nut, i'm not looking for some this instance, sadly i just ordered 2 new vivs just before i found this site, but this time next year i'll need more as my boas will need new vivs again by then

Thanks Kyukaji, maybe the wicks store by me is crap, i'll go check their site out for future reference!
