Oh mylanta! Definitely get a circular saw (or some sort of electric saw of some sort) while doing this. I'm using a handsaw and it hurts! It was only $8 (Stanley brand), and the circular saws were only $50, but I figured if I bought it I wouldn't be using much of it after the trunk was done...

Anything is fine, as long as you can glue it onto the wood. Just use staples to hold the edges and use any fabric you want. Try to keep to less than 1/4 inch thick if possible. Preferrably 1/8"

Nice job. I really got to do that to mine. Had a blow out the other day and it was a bitch to take out my system.

Wow is it really a crime to bring back old threads when the thread is a DIY?
Anyway I'd like to see a few pics!
