MDF or Particle board tubes or ???

My son wants one of those Cat condos that are made of carpet covered
wood products. I can see what much of it is mad from, but there are
tubes (about 12" in diameter) that seem like they are made of MDF or
particle board. Does anyone know what this material is and where I
can get some?

Eric,
Where are you located? I work in a paper mill and can fix you up if you are
close.

You actually got cats to *play* with one of those things?

How about using "Sonotube"?

Cardboard cement forms.

Cardboard tubes from carpet stores? About the right diameter and very
heavy-duty.

I think I will look into our Home Depot here in Ann Arbor to see if
they carry these forms.

Thanks, all for your suggestions. I think they are all possible ways
for me to go.

That's what they are. After my cats riped the carpet off theirs, I got a
look at the inside.

Home Depot sells round forms of different sizes that are used for forming
cement piers for support posts for decks, etc. I think they are only a few
bucks apiece.
