[QUOTE="gbyleveldt, post: 89086, member: 122"] Now, to add a little more value. Just make 100000000% sure that they do the cuts properly. My experience with them has been very far from satisfactory. Maybe try Timber City? Make sure the cut faces are sealed, as otherwise it'll just soak up the paint and you won't get a smooth finish. I believe Ian uses a woodglue mix to do this. Personally, I use a sand cast epoxy as it finishes easier and goes super-smooth. Also, beware of MDF joins as these will creep over time, being visible under the paint. My epoxy process fixes that, but the stuff is not cheap at all. [/QUOTE]
