A rigid building component such as a door, table top or the like, is formed of coarse wooden particles mixed with adhesive, and a solid wooden edge frame, positioned between a pair of damp, substantially parallel, cellulosic fiber webs. A heated press is employed to compact the combination, particularly between the edge frame and the cellulosic fiber webs where the coarse wooden particles are greatly compressed to provide a durable edge. Under the heat and pressure applied in the press the particles are consolidated into a solid structure, while the damp cellulosic fiber webs are converted to tough exterior skins bonded to the coarse wooden particles. The sides of the rigid building component are suitably deeply embossed to provide a decorative paneled appearance.

A rigid building component comprising: a core of consolidated and compacted coarse wooden particles disposed between a pair of substantially parallel densified outer skins of cellulosic fibers firmly bonded to said core, said coarse wooden components including adhesive material coated thereupon and dispersed throughout said rigid building component for adhering said particles into a solid structure, and an interior solid wood edge frame positioned within said coarse wooden particles around the peripheral edge of said building component, said edge frame extending completely around said building component and comprising a pair of stiles on either side of said building component joined by a pair of rails at the upper and lower edges of said building component, each of said stiles and rails comprising a board of predetermined thickness having flat sides substantially parallel to said outer skins, the coarse wooden particles between the sides of said boards and said outer skins being compacted to have a density substantially greater than the density of said wooden particles located centrally of said building component within said solid wood edge frame to provide solid durable wooden edges adjacent said edge frame around the periphery of said building component.
