This is DIY repair, not project.

Had some nasty MDF damage. Instead of looking for replacement parts ar sending table to indefinite storage, decided to fix it. I hope this will be useful to someone.

      @dillekant Not sure, but there is also LDF and particle boards. In my place we call them all chipboards and it’s good enough in 9 times out of 10.
      If someone has good guide, I’ll be happy to have it.

        ah, it seems LDF is chipboard / particleboard ? But then some people call it MDC? I didn’t realise the nomenclature was this mixed up.

    I absolutely love this! I have a passionate loathing for furniture that’s made to break instead of last, and I think it’s pretty radical to take things made from typically “cheaper” materials like MDF and still repair them.

    I’m currently typing this from atop a desk that has some nasty peeling veneers on top of particleboard, maybe this will inspire me to fix it!

      I feel that a lot of people are stuck in cheap furniture, because they either do not know better or just can’t afford anything better. Both of them good reasons to learn to do simple repairs. In any case it is good to not produce more waste!

      Good luck with your project. It sounds a bit more intensive but I’m sure it’s doable!
