The other option is using hardwood planks and screwing everything together.
I have the power tools (Yay for university access!   ).
Also, what paint would you reccomend *primer is a given*. |
Instead of going through all the work to make them yourself you should hint around to the Fraternities and maybe some of the gentlemen will help you. I know you a perfectly capable of building them yourself but it never hurts to ask for help. I know my chapter has built them for 3 of the 4 sororities on campus including Zeta Tau Alpha.
