In an earlier thread, someone suggested using colored MDF for a project I have in mind. Sounded good. But, all my searches have led me to conclude this product is not available in the US.

Specifically, I'm looking for maybe 1/2" thick, Black, in sizes that can be shipped via UPS. Anyone know of a source?

You should request a sample before making a purchase. When I saw this product years ago in Atlanta, the colors seemed muted to me. I had some purple samples that I thought I could make pens with. Not a good idea for pens! That thin wall stuff is no good for MDF.

Nope, tried them yesterday. They did say they had a little 3/4" black and were getting some 3/8" black in about 3 months. But no way to cut into smaller pieces for shipment.

Thanks anyway.
