What would you use to fill an uneven gap or void in HDF? I joined two pieces of board and neglected to check back on it before it set up and one end of my joined piece fell below the other board. I need to built it up about 1/8" to match the other board...

What size sheet is it? Maybe take it to someone that has a router and plane the entire sheet level. Make sure you "pack" under the gap side, plane it then turn it over.
Bet you learnt something here. What a great lesson.

Take it to a cabinet maker that has a large flatbed belt sander, that should resolve the problem. Sander is made just for this kind of problems.

Si has it. Len's idea is also good but would still leave a 1/8" difference on the back side. If you can afford to lose about a 1/4" in the blank length I'd cut out the seam and redo it.
