The design / layout choices and chassis - frame structural issues are common to all build materials and methods.

What I'm motivated by here are the PMF methodologies specifically, independent of the above.

Of course there are some variations, disagreements between experts, and those can be explicated without rancour, lay out pro & con opinions let the noob builder choose from themselves.

And of course lots of questions will need dealing with for each new build thread.

But for complete newcomers to the whole concept, IMO there should be canonical reference materials to grok how it's done, without investing in dozens of hours parsing 50 threads in a random walk through the forum.

I thought me&z gave a pretty good post answering the original post's request which was to offer a summary of what works best and some pros and cons.

John61CT I'm confused as to what you are asking. It seems like a broad request for the best foamy information?

Maybe if I get inspired I will drive such a project, one day.

But I'm a noob, so only as editor / interviewer / info gatherer / IT guy.

Meantime hoping someone else gets inspired to start.

Baby steps in the right direction. . .

Good sub-discussion in The Original Thread

http://tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?p=1236014#p1236014

Mean no offense in my suggestion, of course all the pioneers should carry on as they see fit.
