I couldn't resist. Gloatable. HAD to buy it. All metal in excellent
condition, new(er) tires, lights, wiring all in tip-top
condition...BUT....
The previous owner had built a box from??

wait for it

flake board. (OSB without the nice binders..like cheap, aspenite)
It appears to have started out at 3/4", now WELL over 1 1/2".. swollen
somewhat..and totally delaminated.
The whole box came apart with a snow shovel.
Now... for new material. What do we like? (No, Lew, NOT mahogany marine
ply G)

I'm open to suggestions, even those including a painted finish of some

TIA!

Painted CDX. I've had mine on a little trailer for 5+ years. Left outside
daily. Still solid.
If you want a bullet proof bed, and hate money, Ipe.

That's the first thought I had as well....3/4inch
CDX....weather-proof, durable, sanded one side, reasonable price.
