Hey, I've seen many decal decorations using VINYL is it posible to use VINYL instead of laminate?? |

I think that's how they do most of the pacman cabs (or other cabs with full sideart). |

Do use MDF if you laminate.It cost about the same as ply anyway.The cheap long grain ply is like $20 a sheet and so is MDF.And laminate sticks MUCH better on MDF.I did laminte plywood before.Wasnt happy at all.The surface was rough even with sanding.The laminte started coming off after like a month. Why bother sanding when you can get smooth MDF for the same price. (thats my local home depot) --- End quote --- Don't forget to factor in the cost of the forklift you're gonna need if you ever wanna move a laminated MDF cabinet. ;) |

A 16mm width for wood is standard in Europe and 5/8" T-Molding can be find without problem. |
