What kind of material would you recommend for kitchen drawer boxes?
I was planning on using 1/2 melamine, but, can't seem to locate any yet. This is the material the author of one of my cabinet making books uses.
The local borg has the 3/4" variety, but, that seems a bit too thick.
If I do use melamine, how would/should the edges be treated? Could edge banding be used? Not sure how well it would holdup.
Is 1/2 MDF suitable for this? I'd probably paint it, if I went this route.
I could probably use hardwood, but I rather use something a bit less expensive. I need to make 9 boxes.
Should the bottoms be the same material as the sides, or could MDF or 1/4 or
1/2" plywood be used.ThankX, Ron
