Density and weight are one in the same for something of the same size FYI so Birch is lighter but not more dense.

make sure you dont use Birch Ply like whats found in Lowes or Home Depot. It has no advantage over MDF. You would need to use a solid Birch to have an advantage and it can be very expensive.

except for the fact that it weighs half as much //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

As long as it isnt any less dense and it stays just as rigid, then that could be a plus.

I use the Birch Ply from Lowes, and it works great. $39.99 around here...

x2, comes in 4'x8' here as well. I think the 5'x5' sheets are if you buy it from like, a construction/contractor place.

Just curious, which ply do you use? I see lowes has 7ply and 9ply, just wondering if theres a huge difference.
