Probably lightened your load by half or more, and gained in strength with the birch. I really cannot see using anything other then birch personally. The price is the killer though.
I can catch Birch on sell here every now and then for about $35, but regular price is about $40 to $45. Mdf is cheap though, less then $30 a sheet for 3/4
cool just making sure.. man its like $50 at the home depot here. sorry for the question, i never used it and i jut wanted to try it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
