Circular saw?

Circular saw?
I don't have access to a table saw at the moment, so I was wondering if anyone has used a circular saw to cut MDF for this purpose and how well it turned out.
Would a guide be necessary? I'm assuming a higher tooth blade would work the best, would a plywood(very high number) blade give a nice, clean cut?

Do a google search for a 'sawboard'. I made two (one short, one long) for use with my circular saw to take the place of a table saw that I do not yet own nor have the room for. I use the 18-tooth (I think) blade my DeWalt came with and it's fine. That's more of a rip blade though. I'm sure something like a 40-tooth or something would give a finer cut but will cut slower through the material. MDF though is pretty tolerant of coarse blades due to it's make-up of being just sawdust and glue. It's other woods like plywood or hardwoods that you would want a finer blade for cleaner edges.

Rona I think it is will do up to 3 free cuts for you per sheet of wood or something like that. Just don't expect it to be too precise, even if they have a big table saw or just a panel saw (upright). I've had these services done from various Home Depot and Rona locations around the Lower Mainland and have had wildly varying results. It's not that they don't try, but moreso the equipment they are using is sketchy at best due to it's constant use and minimal maintenance.
