5/8" versus 4/8" or 6/8"
Vash:
It's actually not too hard to pick up if you've ever used a map making system for a game before (like Forge for Marathon...and Halo I suppose). Basically, you make shapes with the line tool, connecting lines to form a 2-dimensional plane of the correct size. For example, you're designing a table with a face that's 12'x8'(a really, really big table), so you make that initial 2D plane 12'x8'. Then you use the tool that looks like an arrow sticking out of a box to pull that 2d shape into the third dimension, assigning the correct depth to the table face. Do that with every piece and face of the table (each side of the leg, every face of the chairs, etc.), and as you're going, connect them to each other as you want them. There are probably more efficient ways to do it...maybe...but I'm happy with that.

I decided to use 20/32" MDF for my first build... My thinking was that it would be a little lighter than using 24/32" MDF. :)
TOK:
I used 7/4. If you know how to convert it you can make two cabs from each piece. :D
