Kicker Guy Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Birch is much better imo. Once you use birch you probably won't go back to mdf.

Ask a good cabinet maker where they get their wood. It will most likely be wholesale, but some will let you open an account. Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes.
