Hi All
Im thinking about building a moving gantry router with a 14"x 18" surface area and just wondered if there are any reasons not to make it out of ply. All the routers ive seen have been made out of MDF but i can get my hands on lots of marine grade ply for fee. Are the any benifts to making out of MDF over ply ? i know price would be one , just thinking about the density might be an isue.
Thanks
