Thanks for waiting for me to subscribe and hit the like button! You have a great way of keeping people glued to what your teaching and knot get board. I appreciate your time and thanks for the videos. PS. I know I spelled some words wrong, I say that because I know some viewer will correct me. Again, great video!
In Texas, we have a saying, "I wasn't born here, but I got here as fast as I could." The same holds true for my comment on your video. It took me awhile to get here, but I commented as fast as I could. Excellent comparison and great sense of humor! MDF and moisture definitely don't get along. That said, should I avoid using MDF for something I'm going to build that will stay in my garage here in humid central Texas? Should I use OSB or plywood instead?
Thank yoy for the very nice video much appreciated; i am beginner DIY and i would know if in MDF there is risk for our health when we cut MDF because in it there is formaldeihyde (carcinogenic) even wearing mask
Just start with my new jigsaw, what can I use the best for my jigsaw, plywood or MDF, and what thickness is the easiest to use for a beginner? Thank you for your story about Plywood vs mdf.
Thank you for you video! I just moved from Europe and there we pretty much use MDF, because know a days there are a bunch of colors and textures. So, you don´t need to deal with painting and there is no need to frame the front, you just use the edge finish tape. I´ve been using MDF for years and it´s very reliable, even againt water. Seems a lot more work to build this way, painting and framing... It´s not a critic, just exchange ideas. Thank you again for share your content.
Hi, I'm building a pantry wall with large doors (roughly 1.5 feet x 7 feet). The doors will be painted. So because of the size of the door and the fact that they will be painted, I want to use MDF. But the door pull I want to build, can't really be made from MDF. It would have to be from solid wood. Is this a bad idea? Or what precautions can I take to make sure it's not a bad idea? I assume there might be some paint splitting issues where the real wood meets the MDF? But other than that, are there any other considerations when making a door constructed in a mix of MDF and solid wood?
Besides veneer oak (I think it was?) applied to MDF, what other good surfaces can be added that are really smooth? Thanks! Also, what are the costs of MDF, with various veneers, and plywood? Thanks.
I’m so sorry it took me so long to write a comment sir, but I have so many questions that it took me this long to narrow it down to just this 1 question. Ok, ready?……. I do a lot of very precision metal work and I’m buying a very precise fixture table that I’d like to use for both wood working and metalworking too. Which would be the flattest and hardest option to cover the metal fixture table? Do you know of waterproof MDF? BTW- I sub’d, cuz if you want to answer question…. Oh brother, I have questions…. 🤔
I love the frequent chapter markers, that helps me find exactly what I need when rewatching (I'm a wood noob)!
Glad you like them, and welcome to the fun world of woodworking
"It's thirstier than me on a Saturday night" HAHAHAHA that's a good one

Hi Marcos, Thanks for the comment, so have we convinced you to join the plywood tribe?

I like your teachings, you're hilarious

What is best for a work bench top
Besides veneer oak (I think it was?) applied to MDF, what other good surfaces can be added that are really smooth? Thanks! Also, what are the costs of MDF, with various veneers, and plywood? Thanks.
Just wanted to know the best bit to use to drill a hole into 30mm mdf. Tried a brand new 10mm wood drill bit as it didn't even penetrate the board.
Thanks for making it plan and simple. P.S. I subscribed......stop it
What about veneer on plywood vs veneer on mdf?
Hey Al…how is marine ply different to normal plywood?
It’s all in the glue between the layers. Marine grade plywood has water resistant glue between the layers. That’s really the only difference
Great
Thank you
Thanks dude
Which one is better for bed base?
Hi Arian, Plywood would be better for a bed base
Can use mdf for shelving?
Hi Jano yes you can use MDF for shelving
How about their fire resistance.
Sir the slang definition of "thirsty" (1:07) has gone and changed on us.😅
hey which one is lighter? tnx
Hi Joogie Plywood is lighter than MDF
I like working with MDF.... if I could only move a 3/4" panel by myself.
is MDF good for vanity cabinet ?
Tricoya fully waterproof mdf would be an option. A bit pricey but for wet areas it would do well.

Yes you can get waterproof MDF, it it will melt in severe heat from your metal work, the best option for you would be birch or marine ply
Are you still there?
Haha nice video.
Glad you enjoyed it
I fcking love your energy!
What’s cheaper to buy? Msg or plywood?
Mdf
MDF is cheaper in the short run
Mdf vs hdf ?
Would you like us to do a video showing the differences?
😂❤❤
Mention danger when working with MDF.
Yes, good point. Always wear a mask. The dust is seriously hazardous.
Always stay safe
From my experience plywood is not very straight
