Does anyone here have specific materials and methods they'd like to share, to help the less talented of us make good quality components?
For counters, I buy vinyl flooring tile from a home improvement store (~ 64 cents / 12" x 12" tile), print out counter pdfs on glossy photo paper, stick the glossy photo paper on to the flooring tile adhesive, score the resulting composite with a rotary cutter, and then snap the counters apart on a kitchen counter edge. Makes really nice weighted counters. They are single sided however so you will have to make separate dead body counters.
