hzsogood Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 i dont think you can kerf with birch.. ive used both and i like birch, or the fake birch atleast, due to weight but i like mdf since its easier to cut, and i can kerf with it. id always pick mdf, unless i built a big wall or something for a sports car and wanted to cut down one weight as much as possible is there a Kerfing tutorial around here somewhere ? lol I wanna learn how to do it, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.p Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 once i used birch ply ill never go back even the home depot 7ply is 3000x better than mdf. when mdf gets a drop of water on it = ruined. mdf is weaker and flexes alot. 1" 19 ply all hardwood ply birch is the most amazing wood i have ever used 55$ a sheet.

wL<3bass Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 You can paint or stain birch, mdf is cheaper, birch is lighter and more expensive, if I had the bills I would use nothing but birch. Check out the T-Line Bandpass in mý sig, its stained and painted... Pretty different enclosure that I've ever seen anyone build.

hzsogood Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 All this discussion about price.. But really tour only buying ( for most of us ) 2 sheet of PLY.. So an extra $40 isnt worth it>? and as for Kerfing , I also think it would splinter , especially along all the kerf lines.. so on a standard 7 1/4 circ saw, a 60-80 tooth blade wont do it without splintering? I have a hard time believing that.. I cut shitty ass arauco ply with a 40 tooth blade ( 5 ply ) and it came out great on my horn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
