Am hoping it won't be so much of an issue when I sort out edged ones and fit them exactly but who knows with degus... 😏

Ace, thank you! They go up to 40cm width which I think should be OK as I'll need to put edging on anyway. Do you think this would be OK for them? www.diy.com/departments/pine-clear-square-edge-glued-panel-l-800mm-w-400mm-t-18mm/1830063_BQ.prd
(edit, size might be too small but they have longer bits of the same wood, I need to measure everything again)

I searched for spruce on the forum and consensus seemed to be it was OK? www.homebase.co.uk/spruce-furniture-hobbyboard-850-x-500-x-18mm_p423170
