The king of overbuild!
A few years ago, I bought a stack of 100 11-3/4 x 48 particle board shelves from Home Depot for $25. It's great for patterns and such and I've still got a ton of it left. I have to bend some 3/4 Poplar. Initially, I had planned on resawing it to about 1/4" and laminating it. But I have a good steam box and decided to try to bend it in one piece first. The forms are done. I'm gonna build the fixture tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes.
