alan_m Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Nick, your idea is great! We made it with my grandfather (unfortunately I don't have a picture of it). But I still remeber his advices and recommendations: if you're looking for a paint grade finish then it's better to use MDF (18mm) or other good wood sheet material. Also you'll need to use - hardwood trim boards, along with this using footer moulding (not bad variant). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
