mdf
sodapopinski:
I'm ordering my wood tomorow and i'm a little tied up over 5/8" or 3/4" mdf. I dont think strenght will be an issue, but i'm concered a little about the t-mould. If i can find some locally, great, but chances are it will be 3/4". I really dont want to regret the size i chose, so, what would you recomend? also would going with the 3/4" greatly increase the weight?

I'd personally go 3/4", but it's just a personal preference. A cab built of 3/4" will definately be a good bit heavier than one of 5/8". How much is hard to say, there's quite a weight difference between my uprights and all of them were built using 3/4" thick material.
Wienerdog:
You're cab will be 20% heavier with 3/4".

3/4 inch is sturdier and t moulding fits it better, use 3/4 inch :)

From what I know, the majority of people use 3/4, so my suggestion, use it.
