    just about the same, i've never had any experience in this kind of work and to get me this far it took a good two days. But if you have the experience you can easily get it done in a day or less.

    not too bad for a beginner project. The sanding is always the worst part. I made mine to hold a 4 and a 1 for some 3 ways. it is somewhere in my cardomain page. So how are you going to cover them? I have a bunch of grey vinyl that is a great match left over from my set but I found a more durable texture coating that I used instead.

    Looks good man, it's a lot of work to make something like that and have it turn out that nice.
