      @HurricaneFan I got the laminate from the German printing service https://arcadeartshop.de/. You'll have to ask for it when ordering the prints, though. I read about it in the shop owner's blog (example, example).

        @Clyde A CNC is waaaaay more than a slightly convenient tool. Scan a barcode and hit start. In minutes you have any curve you can draw on a computer that would take hours by hand, or a bunch of cabinet parts with all tongue and groove joints, screw holes for assembly and any hardware all machined out. It makes a huge difference depending on what you're making. If I were to make several of these, I'd CNC almost all of it.

          @zerohex I have a 4'x8' melamine top for my bench. Great size
