Default How much weight can a 3/4" of MDF support?

The OP is talking about a Tube TV of 150+ Pounds.


I know that he stated he thought it was 150 pounds - but... that's
not even likely. Think of the last console TV you lifted from back
in the 80's - they weren't that heavy. More like 40-60 lbs.


I had a 32" HD TV by Phillips. It is the largest HD TV made with a
CRT. It weighed 185 pounds. Took two of us to get it unloaded and
lifted onto the stand. A flat screen of that size is about 30#.


I think I'm glad I missed out on the early HDTV fad...
