hey guys, sorry for two post's back to back, but im faceing a challenge i have never attempted before. my layout is built to modular standards, meaning.... it measures 10' x 16' and it is 2' shelves built around my wall. my frameing consists of the following... 1" x 4" boxes with 1" x 4"'s for support every 12"'s. it is covered with 1/2" BC plywood. the complete layout consists of 5 seperate tables all connected by way of carrige bolts. i want to add elevation to part of this layout, and i want to use the cookie cutter method and raise it with risers and cleats. the problem is that i have never done anything like this, so im needing any and all advice and suggestions before i make any mistakes, plywood is too expensive now days[:(] if anyone has done this method and has any advice, please tell me. also, the bench work is open grid style if that makes a difference. thanks! <br /> <br />P.S. here is a few pictures of my bench work if that helps any! <br />http://www.railimages.com/gallery/stevemanchester
