Well done. Recycle the unwanted.
>Superb idea bro
>Good that u recycle.
Saving Gaia!!!
But must do it right also
I suggest u use oracle sticker to wrap the whole thing before use...
100% water proof in that way. Can last way longer.
Btw the whole side is not 100% waterproof.
Eventually will bloat if keep kana water.
>Wah fantastic recycling method, but agree with what bro 2ringcreature mentioned better "water proof" it first along the sides of the laminate before it gets bloated in no time due to the water vapor.
>Thks bros for the nice comments and good suggestion. Job done! Now wooden covers are 100% waterproof. Bopian, need to 2 pcs as width of wood not wide enough, or else can make one pc to replace my 4 footer thin perspex cover that bends easily.....
