If you don't mind a material that cannot stand up to normal use without
showing dents, dings and other deformities, then by all means use MDF.
The
stuff is pure junk and should be relegated to the home improvement shows
on
TV.


MDF is of course not as nice as solid wood but with proper prep and paint
it
will hold up very well in this application.



I grudgingly have to admit "I know", but I just hate MDF and sometimes I
just can't keep quiet about it.
