2 major approaches.

1. Brute Force using steel and lots of weight. This will 'ring' at some frequency and IMO is not the best approach. Bridgebuilding for the amateur, IMO.

2. Ingenuity using real wood and sinking to floor. Rigidity is more important than weight. Ingenious design and attention to detail rules.


Early concept drawing with roller coupling to floor. Triangulation improves rigidity with minimal weight impact. It should be possible to modify to a ball bearing system.
Panel will be attach to frame with 6.5mil Teflon and a spring compression system to provide even pressure without drilling and no pressure points.
Intended material of frame would be 3/4" PlyBoo while current version of frame front is truncated, not straight.

Too much is never enough
