But happ charge you $10 extra if your order falls below $25, then add to that the cost of shipping to the uk & time delay, its not a practical option. I'm looking for an alternate in the uk if anyone has any suggestions

They don't ship it from the US as they have a UK depot. I don't deny they charge the earth tho...

i was looking into using a 1mm transparent perspex laser-cut to the required shape. I would supply a CAD file to the workshop and they'll knock out an exact panel top. I'm going to place this over my graphic layer which in turn all sits on 18mm (3/4 inch?) MDF, which is also laser cut to the same cad file by the same people (I have no garage or area to do the woodworking by the way hence the outsourcing
Silver:
No experience, but I would be interested to know some about your "outsourcing". I'm planning to do the woodwork myself, but will have to wait till summer so I can do it outside (non indoor space at all) and have a car to move the stuff around.
Whats the company/how much etc...?
re: perspex : I've not done it but I would imagine you would need something else to hold the perspex down? Even with T-molding at the edge, you may find it pops up a bit as people put there hands on it?

Just an update. I gave happ uk office a ring & ordered from them. The shipping & minimum order charge was excessive, but atleast I've finished my cab now :)
