So I presume that since you tried it out and it worked for you that you added it to the list? No? Well why not? There's your answer.Quote

Looking at the results I ask myself why this solution is not in the list of reprap possible bed.

My guess is that it's not on the list as the results are not highly repeatable. Every time you scrape off a print you're going to be changing the surface, much more so then a metal, acrylic, or glass bed. Other issues are easily gouged, inability to use a heated bed, surface finish, tearing off wood fibers, weight, flatness, dimensional stabality...The only thing it has going for it is that it's cheap.

I think someone already try this. However I'd like to post my experience.
After trying different solution for the bed I try to print directly on plywood with very good results: good adesion and easy to remove with a sharp knife.
Looking at the results I ask myself why this solution is not in the list of reprap possible bed.
I'm using a 12 mm multi-layer that is manufactured with very good surface finish. Forthermore is a very cheap material.
