1/16" Plywood (for those small jobs)

I was a little bored in the shop today so I thought I’d try something I’ve been thinking about for a while – thin plywood. I used a scrap of walnut I had around, sized it so it was about twice as long as wide, re-sawed it (woodslicer) to well under 1/16”. Those blades are amazing. Then I vacuum bagged one piece to crossbands made from the second piece cut in half and when it came out, thinned both sides in the drum sander. Then I bagged the other side on and sanded again. What the photos show is a 4×8 (inch) sheet of three-ply walnut that is 1/16” thick. I didn’t realize until I came in and blew up the photos that one side is quite a bit thicker than the other. I could have run it through a couple more times and likely got 3/64”.

Now I have to figure out what it’s for. Any ideas?
