Medium density fibre board -

Q: What is MDF?

A: MDF belongs to the hardboard family of products which are made from
wood fibres glued under heat and pressure. Medium Density Fibreboard
typically has densities between 33 and 50 pounds per cubic feet while
High Density Fibreboard (HDF) ranges between 50 and 80 pounds per
cubic feet. Hardboard was first produced in 1924 by W. H. Mason,
founder of Masonite Corp. The term Masonite is therefore often used to
denote hardboard products, especially HDF.

Very nice to work with by the way.
