at the moment i cant decide whether to have a 3mm welded top with everything mounted to it and a removable base plate to get access.............or to do what i did with scruffy 1 and have the base plate welded in and everything mounted to that and make the top plates removable

the main bonus with scruffy 1s version was that it was easily replaceable if it got damaged and there was an air gap between the top and the components but with the other idea it would be lighter and i could put a sacrificial layer of polycarbonate or hdpe

any advice anyone ???????/
