Carr, <br /> <br />I don't recommend ripping it on edge like you are suggesting. The pieces will be 1/2" thick and pretty flimsy to try and rip accurately in a table saw. My recommendation is to be real choosy in selecting the pieces. I have found perfect pieces if you are willing to look hard enough. Go to a lumber yard that regularly stocks homasote. I usually have them bring me four pieces from the yard and I carefully inspect them all to find the one that has no dips and bumps in it. BTW: I live in California as well. My local yard stocks homasote.
