Thin Wood..Please Help


Hey quick question. My landlord is trying to find a piece of wood that is VERY thin. We went to menards tonight and the smallest we found was 1/8. She swears what she saw was thinner. Is there really a thinner piece of wood? What is teh smallest and where can I get it. Thanks
