[QUOTE="RussellR, post: 77322, member: 5189"] It is quite strong just it is in an area where fork lifts are working, would normally use metal but the atmosphere is acidic and makes metal rot like crazy, the board being replaced is rotted right through. The GRP stands up very well to the acidic enviroment, other plastics don't, I clipped some wires to tray with standard plastic cable ties and two days later all the ties fell off !! I use stainless steel ones now. Thes cage being made is being plastic coated, so we are hoping it won't rust :) GRP is fine to work with, much like other forms of plastic. [/QUOTE]
