    I think the best answer to your question is going to be the simple fact that any enclosure that is made out of wood will have to be sealed on the inside to prevent these inevitable humidity from rotting it, and once it is sealed the type of wood really doesn't matter. I have made several enclosures entirely out of pine plywood, and have no issues because they get a coating of sealant.
    Where are we going, and why am I in this handbasket?

    Never argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with their experience.
    Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.
