I have made mine out of MDF. It does what I want it to do. As I live in Georgia, and yellow pine is cheap that will be my next bench top, as per the book. No matter what you use or how assemble it you will always find something you should have done or an afterthought, that is the nature of the beast we call woodworking. No matter what you do just go for it and learn and push forward.
Best of luck you you.
Best regards,
