Sheets

Challenges

Many projects require a surface covering to resist weather, splashing and dirt, or to otherwise contain liquids or parts.

Approaches

All-purpose sheet-stock. Waterproof, resists mold and decay even when submerged in water for prolonged durations, insulating, foldable, impact and tear resistant, cuts with a knife. Useful for making boxes, shingles, buckets, backpacks, kayaks, sinks, sluices, rulers, drill guides and templates, and even some structural elements.
