I'm trying to build a collection of useful handtool jigs.
I have a mag (American) that has a nice design for a planing board, etc.
They recommend plywood as it is very stable.
I made the first one from ply and it twisted within a few days.
The next I made from 18mm MDF. It bows every day then I store it on a flat board the other way up and it bows back - mostly!
What is going on!? Is there any "super stable" material we can get here that is good for jigs?
