[QUOTE="mikejjmay, post: 449470, member: 23447"] hmmm....i have to have a seam somewhere anyway since it is both wider and longer than 4ft at its widest and longest point (so cant do the whole area out of a single 4x8. I may just do the area were the original seat was out of the 5/8, and since it is reinforced below almost all over the thickness of the ply wont matter and that is where my springfield kingpin base will go), then i could do the seam and have literally the entire walking space of the casting deck be out of 3/4 for a real sturdy and non-flexing casting deck. I dont think the little 1/8 difference would drive me crazy -might not even notice with carpet - maybe worth the tradeoff for the added strength/rigidity. [/QUOTE]
