Particle board is some pretty heavy stuff compared to wood of the same thickness .... all that glue adds pounds. A Camaro made out of particle board would weigh about 7,000 pounds. ;)

And probably last about 7,000 feet before half the screw holes were stripped, and all the flat surfaces were bowed in the middle, with drink rings on them where people failed to use coasters.

Don't worry Charlie, the updated push and turn fastener onto a metal stud is waaaaay ahead of its time. The problem is the directions aren't!
