laser cut/ milled out
- bloody hell that's a bit OTT. I just drew round mine with a pencil, then used a Japanese Pull saw to cut them to size. A 10 mm Drill is nearly perfect for the poppers.

I used 4 mm plywood as the material, but it's cheap and snaps like frosty carrots. Must buy better quality ply next time.

Not to mention the obvious 'oooh!!' every time some bare bit of skin comes into contact with them.

Hardboard is a good material and you can cover it in all kinds of things. Agree on the 10mm drill.
