Hi,
I have a 1 inch thick mdf with oak veneer shelf which needs an L
bracket letting into the edge at either end near front for added
support in an alcove as the shelf sits flush with the wall. What is
the best way to cut out an area to let this in. Simply chisel out a
channel, or saw grooves into the area to ease the task ? Never
chiselled mdf so not sure how it chisels compared to standard wood.

'Very' sharp chisel would be OK, but a router is much better - if you have
one. Could you not fit a batten under the ends?
