Thanks guys, this IS a lot of work but I think that it is worth it (and I got a new router so this is a good way to test it out)

Now, the hovercraft...
will be 22 inches long, 10.5 inches wide, and about 2 inches tall (the base at least)
I have started to cut the pieces out of 5.4 millimeter thick plywood (this is the only stuff I have ready available to me ATM) Although the plywood is a bit thick and heavy, I plan to router out certain areas to make it lighter. I have done a test with one of the parts and have shaved off 2/3rds of its original weight while not compromising its strength and rigidity. For this build, I will make the two side assemblies first and then join them with the center sections, adding the skirt and fans later. Lastly, I will have to think of something to do for a cockpit/cabin.

Thanks for looking, hopefully you are enjoying this build as much as I am.
