Showerthought: I tried two ways to keep my miter saw table flat and one worked way better.

For years I just screwed a sheet of MDF to my sawhorses, but it always sagged after a few weeks. Last month I built a simple torsion box frame underneath from some scrap 2x4s, and it hasn't moved a hair. What's your go-to method for a solid, portable cutting surface?

Ever try the old plywood-on-sawhorses trick? I did that for ages and the sag drove me nuts. Your torsion box idea is the real fix, in my experience.

Tell me about it, that sag is the worst.
