Default I want to build

OK, I moved up to WA state last year. I was hoping to have my garage cleaned out during the winter so I could start building a few kits I bought. Well, that hasn't happened like I would like.

I have built one kit before, a few years back. That was a Shrike .15 that I built on the living room coffee table. Yes the wife wasn't happy but we were stationed in Japan and room was really tight.

Anyway, I was thinking of putting some 1/2 ply on a card table to build a plane. I'm thinking of starting with a Sig SE. I had the ARF version when I was in Japan and lost it in a dead stick after in CA.

Do you think the card table ply wood combo will be strong enough to support a build? Or is there a better alternative that I can find/build that I can move around? I know the wife won't mind it in the dining room but not as a permanent fixture.

Thanks for any tips and/or info.
