Coosa is $374 a sheet?

A HomeDepot sheet of red oak plywood is $90 as well… think of the investment in winch and rope clutches that get mounted on it, plus I’m sure the table will be smaller than a full sheet, giving you great materials at hand for other projects

The coosa is $375, plus resin, plus glass, plus the labor to get it paint ready. A 1/2" sheet of 2 side mdo, (cut it in half and glue together with titebond 2 to get 1") is $65 plus $7 for the glue.
Coosa is great stuff, but expensive in money and time and overkill for this job. Plus it's not easy to get in many places. Lots of lumber yards and big box stores carry mdo.
Lastly, what will the coosa weigh after you add the resin and glass?
