Melamine PB is a low-pressure laminate, while Formica and the like are high-pressure laminate. Chris |

The first (and only) time I saw 3/4" in stock it was leftover from another customer's (large) special order. It was a one time deal, and apparently as not something that's kept on hand (at my big-box stores anyway). |

HD's web site isn't any help, either. Anybody know what their stock number is for that stuff? My local HD got rid of their 4x8 panels last fall. However, Menards still carries them. It appears that we're all assuming we know exactly that the OP's talking about. Perhaps he needs to clarify. When he says "particle board" that could mean paneling -- but only if it's 1/8" thick (or so) and not 3/4" thick. I assumed, because of the thickness that he's talking about MDF. But it could be that he does mean paneling and that his dimensions are off.... Once upon a time.. I ran across sheets of 3/4" MDF (clad 2 sides in melamine) at Lowes. I'd never seen it in stock before. It seemed like it'd save time. I figured I'd use it for table tops, cabinets, shelves, etc for the shop/garage." And so I bought a couple sheets. Since then, I've used it for fixtures, wheeled cabinets, and various cross-cut sleds as well. |

Wikipedia has a decent article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_board MDF and particleboard are both available in a wide range of panel sizes and thicknesses. Around here, melamine-covered panels (for use in kitchen cabinets, for instance) are generally made from particleboard, not MDF. Chris |

The HD's around here have always had it, at least in the 2'x4' quarter sheets, never looked for the full sheets. But then I haven't been in there in a couple years. -Kevin |

Again, I had it in my head I knew what he was talking about: EITHER the stuff I mentioned, OR the 1/8" - 3/16" thick sheets of paneling (MDF hardboard) clad one side in melamine, like is used in low-cost shower installs. I wasn't thinking covered particle board. But ONLY because I'd never seen the big-box stores here carry such a thing. Suppose you could say I was unable to think outside the box.... ; ) |

Mighta been... if there had been anyone there. :-( I ordered a couple sheets awhile back from Lowe's.... Thanks, didn't know they carried it. I'll check there. |

Oh, nevermind :) I know what you meant, I'm just not sure it would help. If I asked for "laminate" I'd be worried about being pointed to the flooring department. :) Chris |

Won't be the last time you'll wander all over a Home Depot looking for something that nobody can find. Wanted a particular kind of Y hose fitting one day. Went into Lowes, everybody I asked referred me to a different department, finally the manager told me that they didn't have such a thing. So I went out to the car, cranked up my laptop, ordered it online from that store, had lunch, went back after lunch, and they had it waiting for me. |

Last time I was in Home Depot they had a stack of 4x8 sheets of 3/4 inch particle board, not MDF, with melamine on both sides. It was right next to the UV maple plywood and the cut sheets. Now, finding melamine faced MDF around here is another story . . . |

Well, I just updated the current prices and it is still listed. The Worksite CD is store specific, so perhaps the melamine is available in some areas? -- Dennis |
