Do we really need HDPE?
It looks like the HDPE is 0.25" thick. The field drawings show, for example, the scoring platform as HDPE on top of a 0.25" plywood on top of some two-by-fours (1.5"x3.5"). This adds up to the 2" height.

Of course, with 0.5" plywood on top of the two-by-fours, I also get the 2" height.

Is it worth the extra $$ for the HDPE to cover my field elements?
