I bet this depends very much on how you source your materials.  The epoxy and
glass should be similar in cost, but the wood ...

Isn't 4 mm okoume about $US40/sheet?

Don't know what cedar costs for a stripper, but out here, often it is more a
matter of who you know than anything else ... living in the land of western red
cedar, sometimes a willing mill will release some for a good price.
