Okay, 16" sonotube, ~44" high including caps/plugs and base.
I am planning on having 1" MDF plugs laminated to 3/4 BB plywood caps.
So I would have 1" of MDF inside of the tube and 3/4 BB outside, cut little bigger so it overhangs the tube a little.
Q1. Are there any issues with gluing MDF to BB?
Q2. The Baltic birch is from home depot and it cost 14.97 for 2'x4' section labeled Baltic Birch HDWD. Looks like it has 13 or 15 plys. Is this the marine grade?
Q3. If not, will it be okay to use it, since I am using the MDF as the plugs?
Q4. I am planning on using the same BB for the base. Is 3/4" base thickness okay to use?
Q5. What should I use, standard wood glue or polyurethane wood glue?
Thanks
