As I understand it people like it for the uniformity of the finish, especially if they are going to put gloss vinyl on top which would show every last kink and blemish.

Gotcha, that's an expensive base layer... :)

Indeed, but the whole hobby is an extremely expensive way to play games lol, I guess you do it for the love not the money. :dizzy:

Another day, another dollar (out the window :-\)
Actually I've done pretty good today. First of all I managed to pick up a Bosch 2.25 HP 1613Aevs Plunge Router unused and boxed on eBay for $130 inc free shipping so that wasn't a bad start to the day. I knew I would need a router if I was going to do a quality job and I figured as may as well buy a quality piece of gear, however I didn't fancy dropping $220+ on a new Bosch, so this worked out very nicely.
Second big decision of the day is to return the tank stick. When I first started the project I was a little phased by the wiring and electronics involved in building a controller, but as I've looked over other peoples builds I've learned more and think that it will be something I can do. So I'm sending back the tank stick and building my own custom controller. This way I can have something I little sexier than just black buttons and sticks.
