Warning - Rant

If its being painted why not glue a piece of solid onto the edge? Or if you can run a strap across the back to control warping why not make them out of solid? Plywood paints up like crap is why I mention this.

How about one of the hybrids? Where its still VC, but there is a layer of MDF under the outer veneer layer? I buy plywood only for carcass's, and drawer bottoms, so if its a little wavy I don't care. My main goal is to keep them light so delivery doesn't suck so bad.

I'm going to pick up some 12 ply baltic tomorrow, but only if it is as flat as can be. A solid edge on MDF or MDF core is still an option.
 
Even with the plywood I'd still consider a solid edge. Doesn't take much time, and it should be bulletproof at that point as far as the hinge staying solid.
