It's pretty much all fire retardant since that happened. Or at least burns slower. Talk to a Joinery company, they'll have contacts where you can get it cheaper. Be wary though, it dents easily, and if a sheet is buckled or warped it's pretty obvious. If you need to do sharp folds, you can route a wedge out of the inside of the corner so it folds easily. We machine it at work so I have access to sheets at 'reasonable' prices and a 3 x 2 metre CNC router to play with. For me it's ideal for the durability and weight and it's probably no more susceptible to damage than the aluminium sheet bonded to marine ply that I was looking at first. |

Rare woods from the ancestral lands of undiscovered tribes in the rainforests of French West Hartlepools. Get it right  |

I have this week off. If you needed an artistic director on site to help you realise your aesthetic dreams for the red goddess, just let me know.
And I'll ask my wife.
And she'll probably insist on me doing the hoovering, plumbing, Christmas shopping and anything else she can think of to keep me from the open road.
=)
I can bring my own styling booth and a selection of outfits.

It's the roads with vehicles, and lamposts, buildings.... and those round things... and all the coloured lights that I struggle with. |

Here we see the mighty Goddess slumbering peacefully in weak winter sunshine dreaming of a packed 2019 season. We're rounding up sheep to move them to t'top field and suddenly SWMBO's spidey senses detect a disturbance in the force (sorry about the mixed fandoms!)  A hurdle has been moved and what's that on the step?  Oh look it's a lockable fuel cap that seems broken  Where could it have come from?  Borrocks! It looks like I have been syphoned and yes the tank is empty. Did they get inside? Yep, someone has had a rummage for a large truck battery. However I removed it for the winter.   No damage in the cab that I can see and that counts as extenuating circumstances if we ever catch them. The local classic commercial boys are a pretty close knit group of big men with large spanners that frown on this sort of thing and they are on the case. |

Git's - but your guard sheep need it up them too - let the thieving sods come & syphon your fuel and not so much has a bleat from your flock - what were they thinking - I'd be taking that roof back off the new cosy sheep shed for a few nights to teach them a lesson  |

Parasites - if you need a hand (wielding a big spanner or similar) anytime, just shout.

SWMBO is all for locking the Goddess but the bi-fold doors are almost irreplaceable with my skill levels if they are forced. Same with the fuel cap. I'd rather have a cheap cap forced than my nice expensive security flap, that I've yet to fit, being destroyed. There is some good news on the horizon about secure Goddess storage but can't talk about it yet. |
