I am just getting started. Tomorrow I plan to pick up material for
form blocks. Is 3/4 inch hardwood good for all situations?
Thanks, Jerry CH 701

Hi Jerry ,the hardwood will work but why spend so much money .3/4" MDF is
much cheaper and will do the job just as well .

I concur. MDF is great, especially since the XL uses so many blocks and you
only need two ribs from each. I only used hardwood (oak) for the one set of
nose rib blocks--since you need to make so many from them, and they have
that hard radius. I did not add aluminum, to my nose ribs blocks, as the
plans suggested. They have held up fine. The aluminum may be necessary if
you were using regular plywood, though.
