Remember: This is the total cost of making 2 full-size double-sided V-flats. You would obviously reduce the cost a lot if you only need to make 1. Making Your V-Flat uPVC fascia boards are extremely durable and, unlike wood, they don't rot or warp over time. In fact, uPVC fascia boards require virtually no maintenance, and with their long lifespan and easy installation process, it’s easy to see why they’re such a popular choice among homeowners. Threshold: This door comes with a standard point; you can upgrade to Low Aluminium Threshold in the options above. Cill options are available. Eating from a bowl can be awkward and uncomfortable, especially for small dogs, senior pets and flat-nosed/brachycephalic dogs and cats, due to the eating action required to reach food.

This is the best solution I could find to hold the two folding flaps in place when fully assembled, but if you have a better idea, I’d be interested in hearing it. The system can be supplied in modular kit format (please see size matrix) as well as bespoke sizes and configurations. Dogs have naturally evolved to eat from a flat surface, unless they have a medical reason for eating differently. There are many benefits of using a flat board for feeding pets, including: In the wild, cats and dogs would eat from the ground, which is a flat surface. This enables them to move around their food with ease, as well as allowing them to see whether they have any dangers or challenges approaching. Having this awareness during mealtimes helps your pet to feel safe, enhancing their enjoyment as they eat.Pets are able to move around flat boards easily, helping them to reach their food from a range of angles. This benefits all pets, however flat-nosed/brachycephalic and older pets struggle most to catch their food when trying to chase it around a bowl, meaning they may experience the greatest benefits of eating from a flat surface. There are many options available for you to feed your pet from instead of a bowl, such as boards, bringing unique benefits to help create a positive mealtime experience.

As I mentioned above, I trimmed my V-Flat down a little to make it a bit easier to use in a home studio. If you are planning on doing the same, now is the time to do it. Many of you may think throwing together a V-Flat is fairly obvious, after all, it’s just two boards attached at the spine, right? Yes, in its base form, the design is very simple, but if you want to make them foldable, there are a couple of things I learned along the way that I think you’ll find useful. Chief among them is the ‘weave-fold’. The Weave-FoldFor flat-nosed pets in particular, it becomes even more difficult to eat. This can result in them becoming frustrated, anxious and aggressive around food, or stop them eating altogether. The canopy is glazed with 16mm triple wall UV stabilised polycarbonate sheeting offering greater flexibility in canopy design with enhanced strength and rigidity, available in clear, bronze or opal tints. The Evolution Canopy is an exciting new system, encompassing a modern design with clean sight lines providing ease of installation. In addition, its high structural performance ensures this system is an ideal choice for domestic, DIY and commercial applications. Making the hinges in this way actually creates a surprisingly strong hinge, in fact, it’s far stronger than if we’d simply taped it on one side, so I really do recommend you take the time to join your boards like this. The Finer Details of the ‘Weave-Fold’ Tip: I spaced the tape out on each board by using a piece of removable tape between each of my strips. As you can see in the shots, this accurate spacing then allows for the two boards to be joined easily afterward.
