lol :laugh:...while you are at it...you could build a full cab entirely out of wood filler...lol... ;D
Hey I just got back from HD here in Lawrenceville and they have that 5/8" particle board subfloor underlayment stuff, the surface is a bit rougher than MDF...I think there was a thread about that stuff...anyway it looks OK to use for what you are describing if you are gonna put an overlay over the panel under the lexan...it probably won't take paint very well...it is about $10 and some change for a 4'x8' sheet. Just thought you would like to know...good luck... ;)

You could always just buy some 1/2'' MDF and stick some sort of material that is 1/8'' thick. I don't know if you would be able to route your groove ok with that though. I am in Lawrenceville as well though, right off McKendree Church Rd.! Good to see the locals here HAHA.

I find it hard to believe that neither Lowes or HD had no type of wood that was 5/8'' thick, you don't have to use MDF, it'll be impossible to tell the difference once the plexiglass and t-molding is on. If neither one actually doesn't have any 5/8'' wood, then ask to talk to the manager and ---smurfette--- slap him. I'd then suggest running since security will be after you.
