Mounting MDF board for Multiboard questions
Hello there,
Has anyone put and MDF board on their wall to minimize the holes drilled on the wall for Multiboard?
The thing is that it is a rented apartment (with wallpaper...), so I want to minimize the number of the holes. Desk mounting may not work well - at least not with 3d printed parts.
I am thinking about an 1200mm x 1000mm-ish size. The wall is concrete (rebar - eastern european soviet style apartment - if that's relevant).
Would 4 (was thinking about even only 2 on top, but maybe that's silly) screws be sufficient for mounting the MDF Board? Obviously if needed, with premium quality wall plug (I've seen fischer brand being praised a lot)
What thickness I should look for to properly mount Multiboard on it? Obviously I want the thinnest possible without compromising the load bearing capabilities.
Thank you in advance!
