• Medium-density fiberboard (MDF or MDFB) is an engineered wood product formed by breaking down softwood into wood fibers, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and resin, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure. It is a building material similar in application to plywood but made up of separated fibers, not wood veneers. It is denser than normal particle board.

  I can't say I have ever seen it used in that way, but I would expect you could put the stuff in a mold during the curing phase to produce a plate. Not too sure how you could apply a finish. I think it would need a coating of something like a plastic (melamine?) otherwise it would be too porous.
