Do you have a source for the green pc board? Radio Shack no longer stocks it. Torrence Electronics stocks FR4 which is more yellow. I did find the brown micarta in a surplus yard 1/8" x 4foot x 10 foot. The owner was not there and they did not know the price nor want to cut it. I could make a few scales if I bought the sheet LOL.

Have you bought this "green pc board" somewhere before? AFAIK the green boards are usually normal FR4 which have been coated with coating that is green.
I have this,its a foot long and varies in the width as you can see.Its a little over 5/8'' thick and a bitch to cut.If i can find an old bandsaw blade at work i can try to slab off a couple of pieces.I also have round bakelite.

I found some at Apex in Sun Valley California. It has square cutouts but there is plenty of area in the margin. I also went back to Max and they cut a foot off the brown micarta. So I am setup.
