Got bored this weekend decided to build new dog box its framed in 1 inch tubing and covered in fiberglass panels.   Four seperate compartments.  The top is 3/4 plywood sprayed with ameriguard Berliner.  Made for pretty slick setup.

Me and a buddy put it together this weekend I own a body shop in zephyr if anyone's interested we pretty much build them to suit.   We went fiberglass on this one for the weight savings also we can paint to match whatever.

I know you built the box, and you did a great job on it.  I am talking about the flatbed.

What part of that box is fiberglass?  It looks all steel to me with a stall mat on the top of it?

Very nice, I imagine that saves a lot of weight.  Have you had any experience with it cracking or dogs chewing on it?
