John,
Thanks for the pictures. That looks like a lot of hard work there. I will say good job. The only thing is the backer plate is not necessarily needed but it won't hurt anything. Keep us posted in your projects, I for one look forward to the pics.

Looking good so far.
But it's hard to say, without knowing what the final product needs to look like. [WINKING FACE]
