Troubles finding 5/8 MDF
(1/9) > >>
MYX:
This is odd. I would swear that HD and Lowes have had 2 x 4 sheets of 5/8 MDF. I went yesterday to get a sheet for my CP and everyone I asked looked at me like I was crazy. However true this may be, I still need my MDF. Where did you guys find your stuff? I do not feel like routing a 12 x 32 piece of 3/4 in MDF down to 5/8. (But I will if I need to)
AtomSmasher:
Thats odd, I got mine at Home Depot.
ChicagoDave:
I had to go to two seperate Home Depots.  The first did not have it, but the second did.
wrench:
neither hd or menards around me had 5/8 mdf,I used the particle board for my cp top and 3/4 mdf for the rest.After the cp was completely done it's solid.I've got no regrets.I used 2x2 supports at all the joints(glued and screwed).Keep in mind if you try to shave down a 3/4 mdf board,the dust produced is supposed to be nasty,make sure you use a mask.

In west michigan none of the biggies, Home Depot, Lowes and Menards, carry 5/8. I ordered it at the local lumber yard.
