FRP/Shower Panels?

chainsaw Nov 14, 2004 08:08 PM

Anyone had experience with this material?I read a previous thread about using it to line the bottom of cages...could you build cages out of it if you doubled up the sheets,and used angle brackets?Would this be cheaper than PVC or wood?
Thanks!

Yes.

I highly doubt it.

Would this be cheaper than PVC or wood?

No, it's just a bit cheaper than nice plywood to begin with. Factor in the double thickness and you're already over the price of PVC. Then you need the framing which can be pretty expensive.
