If its going to be painted then MDF would my choice cheap and will
take paint very well.

I always find odd the postings I read for the people who do not
recommend using pine for furniture. Where I come from people a pay
premium to get antique pine furniture and reproductions also do very
well.

Thanks to all. Great advice, I will seriously consider the MDF since
I have 3 sheets in my garage, I just never thought of using it for
making furniture.
