I'm going to make a new base for my pigs. Since I can't find a coroplast we we're thinking of using linoleum instead with a plywood underneath so that it won't fall off from its side.

Any suggestion on what adhesive to use to stick the linoleum to the wood? I'm not going to stick the whole linoleum to the board. Just on some of the parts so that it won't move.

How about sealant for the corner?

Your comments/suggestion will be a great help. Thanks.
 
i guess u could use wood glue or alot of ductape lol um coroplast would still be the cheapest and best to go well besides lin well im just blabbing lol hope the wood glues a good idea
 
Glue

Use glue but make sure its "Non Toxic". Thats important for the piggies!
 
Elmers

I was looking at adhesives also. Most of the products I found were not useable, ie. toxic, fumes, etc. I would probably start looking at something like Elmers wood glue. Or you could wrap the linoleum around the out side and staple gun it to the out edge. As for the sealing the corners I gave up on that. After the newspaper liner and the bedding most everything gets absorbed before it gets anywhere near leaking. Good luck and happy building
