So...I need to make a cross cut sled and I have made them in the past using
tempered hardboard that was smooth on both sides...I'm having a very hard

sled, will MDF work out all right or should I keep looking for the tempered
hardboard?

I would look for the hardwood, The MDF will not slide as well on the
saw.
