I've not worked with Cherry plywood but Birch and Oak plywood work fine with Boiled Linseed oil. See an example here: http://www.pbase.com/durrenm/image/41410742

Measure it with a micrometer, mark it with chalk, cut it with an ax.
No, cherry ply and solid cherry accept b.l.o. the same. Just keep sapwood with sapwood, and heartwood with heartwood for equal color.
