Warning: I almost skipped the cardboard for a $40 foam board build and I'm glad I didn't
Two sides here: some folks in my woodworking group swear foam board mockups are faster and hold shape better, but my cardboard chair frame from last Tuesday held 180 lbs before the tape gave out. I was sure cardboard was a joke for anything with real weight on it, so now I'm wondering who's right. Any of you build a load-bearing mockup and switch materials after?
