Re: Combi-Core or MDF Skin Plywood
开云体育Hi Bryce,? I assume you mean MDF/HDF skinned ply, even though you mentioned just MDF/HDF in the beginning but then you say, “The nice thing about the MDF or HDF skin is the surface you have for painting is awesome and it's much lighter than regular MDF”. Then you mention that edge banding for MDO as if it wouldn’t be required for MDF skinned. I do intend to do solid wood edge treatment where visible. I am leaning towards solid wood shelves as well. Doors will be solid wood. Jason, Regular MDF is not an option due to hardware used by MDF. Manufacturer specifies ply and does not recommend even solid wood. David, MDO is definitely an option. I just have not heard of it used for projects like this and that could be just my ignorance. I have used it before and would like to get a new experience with MDF skinned ply. If damage to the edges, ?during transportation, is the only concern, I can handle it as the edges will be trimmed and edge banded. Longest piece, I need is 91 inch and I have few inches to spare across the width as well. I am also interested in learning about any differences in the core between MDO and MDF skinned product. Better core will be most important as both surfaces are good for painting. I am assuming both might be available in 1” thickness and that could be the deciding factor. Appreciate all feedback. No mention of primed product yet. Imran Malik IAM Wood Creations On Feb 23, 2025, at 8:53?AM, Jason Holtz via groups.io <jholtzy@...> wrote:
