even old cupboards and things like kitchen carcases etc should be OK. I've a van so can pick it up and the more the better

cheers

p.s. wtf is MFC? I meant MDF

Melamine Faced Chipboard, and it'll do your shelving job just as good as MDF. Kitchen carcasses are far more likely to be MFC than MDF.

That ply doesn't look thick enough to me.

I've had a load of big chunks of MFC lying in my front garden for weeks, it just went off to the tip at the weekend, sorry. I realise this is of no help whatsoever.

MFC is great stuff, leave it outside, and as if by magic it gets thicker and thicker! What sorcery is this?
