If you buy them at Lowes, they'll cut it for you.

And apparently $47 for a 3' x 6' sheet, which is $99 a sheet at Home Depot. Great idea, thanks! Now I'm *twice* as sad I didn't go that route to start with. :)

Almost there... the right half is done.



And "finished"!





At least, finished as in, I haven't done another generic mail-hanging thing for my hauberk, or stained them, but ... gotta get materials (and money for materials) first. And I'd like to do something so the plywood base isn't so obvious; not sure what yet. Another day, another project. So done for now! :)

James, looks very cool. The items in the shadowbox case are an Arisaka Type 99 bayonet and a WWII Japanese police officers sword.
