Re: Properties of MDF...
As an unrelated but interesting sidenote, MDF's porosity means that you can utilize it on a vaccuum table.
No need to set foam in channels or make jigs for oddly shaped pieces- you can simply lay the board down on the table and if your piece is sufficiently smooth and not porous (Corian works great- i'd imagine lexan and aluminum work too), your piece will hold right down. And you can cut into it, typically without losing your piece.
We did this with our wood shop's router. Works great.
