S2S tempered hardboard in north Raleigh

[merrill77]

When I see it locally, it's always rough on one side.

I have never seen it either. Although I have not actively looked for it at any speciality sheet goods source like Wurth Hardwoods, Horizon Forest Products or even Jackson International. So far I have had no reason to need it smooth on two sides. But I only use it for jigs and topping on my workbench, all one sided applications.
Whatcha need it for???

Believe it or not, the home depot on capital had double tempered hardboard in stock last time I was there. No 4x8 sheets; 'twas in the smaller 2x2 and 2x4 sheets stacked vertically in the cubbyholes.

Same with the HD in Greenville, although the label on 4x8 sheet bin said smooth both sides, but it wasn't.

Thanks! I'll be make a trip over there soon.

For anyone else who might be listening to this thread, I _did_ find 1/4" MDF at the Home Depot on Strickland last weekend. Only the smaller pieces (2' x 4'), but that was all I needed.

Wurth Wood Group will have it. I stopped by the Charlotte store (I believe they have a Raleigh on too) and put my hands on some of that stuff. I too had told myself "it doesn't exist", but sure enough ... they showed it to me.

I bought a sheet of 1/2 MDF at the HD up on capital and they still had some double tempered in the bins...you had to sort though as it was mixed with single tempered.
