Can I use plywood for furring strips?
Re: 1/2″ plywood for furring strips Just be careful not to strip the screws when attaching to the 1/4″ plywood or you wont get them to counter sink enough to cover. You could also use 1/2″ Plywood and 1/2″ drywall but cut the drywall to butt against the stair stringer since it will not fit behind.
