HELP! RE: coroplast or sturdy board

Find a item called Strudy Board it is a plastic coating with foam in the middle. Would this work instead of the coroplast.
 
coroplast

I dont think you can use that stuff. I would look for the coroplast as its very sturdy. I just called my local sign making shop, and asked if they had any coroplast for sale. They told me they only had a piece of used , that had been used for shipping. They said I could buy it for $15. I agreed and when I went there to buy it , they ended up giving it to me for free. :rolleyes: Try calling around! Its worth a shot. I told the man I was making a cage for my piggy.
 
Re: coroplast

It would properly be ok if the pigs weren't chewing it but I don't really know. I didn't use coroplast as my cage is just so big I couldn't of transported the pieces and it was very expensive. I used sticky back floor tiles stuck to a piece of hardboard. I wrapped the hardboard in a sheet of tarpaulin first so that it would be waterproof. This has worked fine and the tiles only cost £2 for a pack of 10.
I have a pic of it <a href="*link removed*" target="top">here</a> if you'd like to see. I've added a loft to the top floor since that photo though
 
Re: coroplast

No. The best alternative is linoleum.
