[QUOTE="galacticmonkey, post: 7258956, member: 570857"] Birch isnt THAT much more expensive than MDF. As a percentage it is, but its going to be like $10-$15 a sheet more usually. Birch is lighter and stronger, but I dont like the way it cuts, and it splinters when you cut it. Hard to get a nice looking edge when its all splintered and shooting little chunks of wood into your face. MDF is heavier and not as strong, but cuts like butter and is much easier to router. ***** it makes so much dust though. Really depends on the application. [/QUOTE]
