Dietz Cabinets.

I'm about to order timber for a pair of these. What's the argument for using ply over MDF? The Dietz examples are usually MDF, right? Either way they'll be finished with waterproof epoxy floor paint and have metal corners, I'm thinking MDF is going to be easier to route for handles/speaker cutout/rounding over edges etc. but a lot of you seem to be using ply...
Don't shun it. Fun it.

I think it's a weight and durability issue. W/ epoxy paint, mdf will probably hold up to moisture. They big Q's are weight (ply is lighter, generally) and how they will stand up to the road.

I would guess MDF is gonna chip/crumble when dropped/smashed/kicked into place in the back of a van. The paint will certainly help. On the other hand, it is much easier to work with, and way cheaper.
No one is paying you to sit on that bed and cry.
