I used 1/8" masonite that I got from Home Depot. I had them cut it lengthways in 18 " wide strips. Since I have a shelf layout, I simply set it on the benchwork and screw nailed it to the side wall with drywall screws since I knew where the studs were. Butt joints were tape and mudded. Where the masonite curved into the corners, I just screw nailed into the walls on both sides of the curved area without worring about the reinforcing the curve. Masonite will take an extremely tight curve or a very loose curve depending on what you want in the corners. Position the masonite so you don't have two pieces meeting in a curved corner. <br /> <br />Larry
