As I understand it, OSB would be superior because it's
a high-pressure compressed and resin impregnated.
HOWEVER - there is the weight consideration - it will
last, but I can't imagine it would be light... I also
can't imagine that it's inexpensive since it's one of
the hottest "green" technologies for architects right
now.
If anyone knows where one can get 4x8 sheets of this,
I'd like to check it out too!
