OSB Plywood

Wade:

OSB is about the worst thing you could use, don't even try it.  MDO would be great, or MDF.  I had no problem finding MDF at both Home Depot as well as the local lumber company (Evans), you should be able to find it pretty easily.

I'm in Charleston, WV, check out my website and let me know if you want to get together to do some gaming sometime, or just shoot the breeze.

Yes ... it's made from big ol' wood chips unlike particle board.

I'm located in West Virginia (near Gallipolis, OH) ... the worst place you could possibly live if you want MDF .... lol  ;D

I was mainly concerned with chipout ... how well it excepted laminate ... and if it was easy to paint.

MDO is veneer core hardwood plywood overlaid with a pressed fiber material (MDF surface ... so both sides are smooth) ... best of both worlds.

Spystyle ... viewing your site ... you used particle board ... not OSB.

Here's a link that shows the difference between MDF, Particle Board, and OSB : http://www.lowes.com/lkn?action=howTo&p=Build/OSBMDFPart.html&rn=RightNavFiles/rightNavHowTo
