Rebanne Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I want another kennel or two but getting hold of one in the size I want is proving a bit difficult. So I am thinking of building my own. Besides marine ply what other ply is waterproof? Should I build a frame then use weatherboards? I am quite a handy person but only have a basic hand saw and drill to work with and have never built something that needs to be so strucually correct so it doesn't fall apart within a few days or weeks.

Rebanne Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Thanks, that helped define a few things. I want an opening to the side and a flat, slightly sloping roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipsqueak Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 these guys do fairly large kennels, though shipping might be expensive... http://www.bonzadogkennels.com.au/frameset_product.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterpaws Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I will try and take a photo tomorrow (my memory being what will let me down) of the kennels that my FIL built for the dogue and ridgeback. They are fantastic, the only thing I would change, is that I would prefer a hinging roof. Ours are solid roofs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
