[QUOTE="scoutshouse, post: 1053230, member: 267"]Cool! It doesn't look like paper, so i think you can rule out early board products. Higher density hardboard was developed around 1920s using wood fibers. It looks relatively smooth, right? Maybe [USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] has more experience...? Dont quote me on any of this - I'm no expert! Masonite is just a fun topic for me, as my cousins live in Ukiah, CA. I always called it "Ukiah, The Masonite Capitol of the World!" because of the mountains of redwood sawdust right next to the main highway.[/QUOTE]
