Rough material list and cost for those interested:

- 2 sheets 8 ft x 4 ft x 3/4 in plywood, $50 from a local lumberyard (I got a good deal on this, it was pretty decent quality.)

- 3 yards vinyl, $24 ($8 yard, local fabric shop)

- 3 yards green velveteen fabric, $45 ($15 yard, local fabric shop)

- 1 sheet, 54" x 72" foam, 1 inch thick, $22  (local fabric shop)

- 3 yards of a .25", 54" wide foam, $29 (ordered online, includes shipping)

- Folding table legs, $20 (Lowes)

- 2000 Heavy Duty Staples, $6 (Lowes...yes you need about this many)

- 3M Spray Adhesive, $15 (Lowes)

-  Extra Jigsaw blades, $5 (Lowes)

Tools needed (either owned or borrowed):  Jigsaw, Drill, Staple Gun (STRONGLY recommend an electric one), Sander, Sharpie, Yardstick, Pliers (used to remove bad staples)

Hardest part?  By far the hardest part was trying to get the vinyl on the rail.  I didn't get it perfect but it's pretty close.  If I had to do it again I'd seriously consider taking it to an upholstery shop to get that part done.
