[:)] Thanks guys for the nice welcome! Yes , Iam new to this forum. Yes, I did the cut outs to try and keep it as light as possible and it will be moved from the garage where I am building it. and good question!!!!! tes, I debated long and hard about using 1/2 ply but when you see the shape I have cut out, I think you will understand why. Lots of curves! and I can eventually glue and screw a nice 7 inch facia piece to the edges. (all the way around) I also used the half inch so that I can put in pull out drawers for the dcc and other stuff which will look like part of the facia when pushed in flush. Hope this makes sense.! lol No, I did not get a deal on the 3 inch foam! Cost me an arm and leg but really wanted it so I could go deep below grade for the rivers. just trying to make it more dramatic visually. I am using 4 large bolts and fender washers to tie the 4 pieces together! Beautiful piece of work using the drinking straw to run wires thru the foam!!!! had not thought of that! Thank you!!!!!! Love it!!!! Thanks for the replys! I'll get some pics in tomorrow!
