michelevit:
my first cab was mdf.
never again. i used a mask and wore a beanie which made the cutting experience
survivable. my biggest complaint is the dust. -it gets everywhere.
even with a dust collector. the dust is a really fine powder that
clings to everything. i am still trying to clean the mess.

now all my wood is plywood or real wood.
i wouldn't recommend it for anything. plus its really heavy.
i think the only advantage is the price.

It's also easier to paint.  I guess I'm lucky I cut my MDF outside too.  I got a few specs in my eye a couple times (even with ear protection) but I didn't have that many issues with it.

LOL. I when I cut mine I was in a closed garage  :banghead:  I had a mask but I didnt use it that much.  :banghead:  I would cut outside if I could. The people down the street are very anal about things like it tho.  Next time I ever have to cut the stuff I am doubling up the mask or getting a better mask.
