dravyn Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Hi all, I'm getting a 36"x18"x18" built and was wondering if I should get it in the thickness they suggest (6mm) or go up to 9mm or 10mm? 6mm seems pretty thin to me for 18" high? cheers, michael.

Lepperfish Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Just one brace between where the lids fit in will be fine.. I have only seen 2 or more bracings on 6ft and up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
