What I thought would be a relatively easy task to find a sheet of decent sized wood to use as the base, soon turned into a pain, after scouring many DIY stores, timber yards and anywhere I could think.. I was about ready to give up (yeah I know, already) so I left the project before it even started...
Then a couple of weeks went by and I was once again in a well known DIY store and I thought I'd just have a quick look at the wood, there was a 5' piece, but I knew I needed bigger, so I asked at the desk if they had anything, After a search the shop assistant told me they had one bigger sheet in, but it was reserved for collection, and after searching their store stocks list, there were no others in nearby branches, as she told me this a colleague of her's pipped up that he thought the collection time limit of the piece they had in had run out, and upon checking dates it was confirmed. Success - I had my 'blank'.. I could at last start the idea my friends had laughed at...!
