Do you use benchdogs on it?

I built a workbench using lumber and MDF. I used two ¾ MDF slabs (30x80)
for the table top. The finishing touch was ¼ hardboard on top of the MDF
and it functions just fine. Use a table saw to cut MDF. You might need some
help cutting the MDF, depending on the size of your table top. Also, I used
a nice trim to finish the edges.



Happy woodworking!

I'm thinking of building this beast as a workbench:

If you're too shy to go to the page, it's a workbench with 2 full 3/4"
MDF layers and 2 "semi" MDF layers for the top (MDF on the ends and
edges), and a hardwood banding around the edges of the MDF. Looks to be
very stable and heavy.

My question is: will the MDF do alright for using benchdogs, or will the
MDF wear out quickly? I'm thinking of the round Veritas dogs for easy
installation.

Cheers!
