i know a lot of the users on here use MDF as a common material in their shops, but where i go to school the model shop absolutely forbids the use of MDF. the shopboss says this is because there are harmful chemicals inside MDF and he doesnt want to ruin router bits on it. now i find this hard to believe considering so many people use MDF but could anyone shed any light on this? anybody have any convincing material to prove him correct or incorrect?
