Of course wood works. But WHERE do you get 2" x 2" wood?
All the 2x2 I see is REALLY 1 1/2" and NOT suitable for this use. If I had a MAJOR wood shop with a Planer and a GOOD table saw, I could work with non-dimensional lumber.
After all, a quick count shows 144 cells arranged in a 12x12 matrix.
Besides, wood weighs a LOT. Yellow Poplar, for example, runs nearly 28lb per Cubic Foot. I've calculated a need for about 1.25 cubic feet which would go 35lb. Ridiculous waste of wood, IMO, and difficult to hang. And you can't actually GET 2" x 2" wood!
I can make what you have, painted ANY COLOR you wish and bring it in for about 5 POUNDS, with backer, paint and hanging hardware.
I won't disclose, at this time, my choice of material, until I've MADE some. It isn't impossible, but it is somewhat a PIA to get what I want, since NOBODY carries it, especially the 'home stores' .
HINT: Not a hard foam OR castable foam.
Too much is never enough
