It's made of a poplar core. I got the slats at Home Depot for a smashing $11.

Mike W.:
The hardest part was sanding it down. Keeping the rounded edges consistent and straight is damn near impossible without a belt sander. Because I used a dremel, there are definitely slight lumps and divots. But I guess that's what sets it aside as handmade and unique!

Sir Douglas:
Do you have any large-ish, fine-tooth files? That might help smooth out some of the lumps...if they bother you, that is. You probably won't even be able to tell once the leather goes on. ;)
