is 3/4 mdf strong enough to build a cabinet carcass for my shop tools
such as a rolling cabinet for my bench top drill press; mortiser; etc?

Would it be better to use 3/4" hardwood plywood or a dimensional
lumber frame with mdf skin?

It should be, but it is also very heavy to handle. I used 3/4" birch
plywood with good results. Mine has a drawer in the fron and the pancake
compressor sits in the bottom. Just be sure to use good casters for easy
rolling. I have 4" on mine.
