Using 3mm MDF board to make Turret Boards for guitar amps.

[McCreed]

As I have noted numerous on this forum, I know sweet-bugger-all about the technical aspects of electronics. I usually depend on you & Simon to edumacate me on such matters.

So my question is why are you looking to use MDF when you can blank turret boards for what seems like a very reasonable price to me? (Evatco)

There is also a much greater fire risk with MDF than say glass fibre.

This was my first thought even with my low level understanding of amplifim-ma-cation and electricity.

I was mainly seeing if there were some suitable alternative materials I could buy locally, rather than order them online, of course, I could just order some sheets of FR4 fiberglass from Evatco, but the sizes of FR4 sheets they stock aren't really big enough for my purposes, I was thinking of making some Eyelet boards for my Soldano SLO-50 50W amp head project.
