Is it ok to use stacked and glued-up MDF rings for a round table apron that will be 22 inches diameter, 1-inch thick MDF ring, with a 2.75 inch wide apron face? 1/16 inch wood veneer would then be glued to the outside diameter of the ring.
I just read about this in Fine Woodworking, however the author used MDF as a template for a wooden ring; I have the MDF to make the rings but don’t have the wood to build a wooden ring so I’m wondering if there are issues with using MDF instead of wood.
The veneered face will be paint-grade poplar, and the table legs will also be poplar.
