Coroplast question from the math challenged.

If I put together a 2x5 or a 2x6 grid cage, will the 4x8 cloroplast sheet still fit either option?? I'm *so* bad at math...

Re: Coroplast question from the math challenged.

A 4x8 sheet should exactly fit the length of a 2x6 if you are using 6" high sides.

Re: Coroplast question from the math challenged.

Ha ha a question I actually know the answer to!!!

I made a 2 level C&C cage with the 1st level being a 2x3 and the 2nd level as a 2x2, which only took 1 sheet of coroplast, with a bit left over. Considering if you add the 2 together, that means that 1 sheet can definitely do a 2x5. I made the sides about 7 inches high. Since you are only making 1 instead of 2, that leaves about an extra 14 inches because I needed 2 sides more than you will. With the extra 14 inches, that should be just enough for a 2x6 as each grid is about 14 to 14 1/2 inches! Hope this all makes sense!! LOL

Laura.
