Any suggestions? I'm thinking of finding a cheap hollow core door
(because they are generally true and not warped) and putting either MDF
or masonite on it.


Some other idea?

It's been a long time, but the last time I resurfaced a radial arm saw
I put a layer of plywood down on top of the old surface. *I suspect
that actually replacing the table would be best done with a piece
of MDF. *I don't think a door would last very long, plus it would
be awfully thick.

3/4 mdf with a 1/4 ply top. A hollow door is not suitable.
