Getting MDF board cut to size

Is there a DIY store (in Zurich) where you can get MDF boards cut to size (i.e. to make a table top for poker or subbuteo)?

I don't know many DIY stores in Zurich, except perhaps Jumbo. Would they be able to fix something up for me? Do IKEA do it?

Re: Getting MDF board cut to size

I've had boards cut to size at both Jumbo and Migros Brico. I think there was a charge per cut but it was small enough that I don't remember .

Have you got the MDF already? Many shops will cut the wood/MDF they sell either free or for a small fee, but probably not wood/MDF bought elsewhere. In which case find a local carpenter and ask them.

Ah no, I should have clarified. I don't have it yet, I intend to buy the MDF at the shop that cuts them to size if possible!

Migros Do-it, Coop Brico, Jumbo and Obi all sell MDF and will cut to size for a fee.
