Dale W 4 Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Before you purchase the plans, make sure you can find two large sheets of door skin. I couldn't and used 1/8" plywood and had big problems making it work properly (in fact, my sheet split up the middle). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dale W 4 Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Possibly, I was not thinking in terms like that when I built mine. Whatever wood you choose, you have to bend a pretty good curve into it (like a book spine). If you follow the ebay instructions to the letter, you will need door skin or a very flexible wood. As I said, I split one of mine. And I had to attach the wood to the frame with bolts (the nails recommended did not hold it down). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
krusaders 0 Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 I went to the hardware store and told them I wanted door skins for the pages...The guy said this would be the near to what the door skin was....It's a certain panelling and it worked good for us....

Glenn Barber 4 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Would a sheet of firmica (totally mispelled) work? My wife is all over this - I showed it to her and she loves it. Are the instructions on Ebay? What name? Glenn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dale W 4 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 look up "Giant lawn bible" on ebay. the seller, who's name escapes me at this time, is in Canada and will email you the plans. The pages are about the size of a sheet of plywood each, but bent in such a way that you will lose a foot or so where the two sections meet. I am not sure how flexible formica is to know if it will bend to the spine or not. More or less, it will bend to the scale of a book. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
