Now all I need is a poly sheet perhaps 2'x1'. Any suggestions? For this
job even that "currogated" stuff would be fine.

I get many square feet a year of 3/16" black polyethylene from a local boat
builder who routes out dash panels from it. Some of the "drops" have
sections as large as 2x3', but are useless to him because of the geometry
of his dashboards.

Any plastics dealer will have it, as do McMaster-Carr and MSC.

Thanks for the pointer. It turns out that I was wrong on the "cart"
being polyethylene, although I haven't figured out exactly what it
_is_ yet. I know it does crack -- there is one small one where a
bolt holds the belly-band lift support tubing in place -- and the
color and surface have a "weathered" appearance. I need to make
sure that whatever adhesive I use will adhere to both the cart and
the patching material.
