I decided 2 days before delivery of my Vader PF I was going to make the shelf he's sitting on a custom Death Star theme. Well part way into it I decided to expand my idea. Add to that the wood I chose was not the best one and too many stringy splinters doomed my $50 project but has led my to revise and expand my idea to something that now seems possible.
I wanted to cover my whole shelf so the back wall was a bit too wide to get away with a few 2x4 foot sheets so I purchased a full 8x4 footb1/2 MDF board. Now the back wall is 32"x26.5" but with 1/2 cut out it will weigh about as much as a 1/4" piece. I wanted to go 1/4" with 4 pieces being used so I may have a lot of 1/2 MDF to use on future projects.
So what's the project look like?
This is a pic of all the pieces followed by my failed back wall and then the new MDF post hole saw pre jig saw.
