Is Particleboard okay if I'm using laminate over it?
syph007:
my experience is that it is just ok. The edges of it have a tendency to crumble. I now only use it for mockups or templating. MDF holds up better, but its nastier to work with, which is why I use particle board still for some jobs. Routing the t-molding slot in particle board wont leave as nice of slot as other material. But yes it will be covered up. So I guess its probably fine, but I wouldnt recommend.
Edit: Looks like pinballjim is using particleboard. See the edges for what I was talking about.
