A crate for puppy (programming.dev)

I made a crate for puppy! He keeps outgrowing the ones we bought, so I made a large one out of his playpen panels that should be big enough until he's fully grown.

The floor is a sheet of plywood. I put vinyl wrap on it for waterproofing (turns out it's too fragile, by the time I made the rest I made a couple of tears).

For the top, I made a lip out of PSE wood (I think 25mm), to give more rigidity and allow fitting a hinged top.

Cabin hooks for the door, but they turned out to be too loose, so I added a Brenton bolt.

Puppy likes it, so overall a success!

Is that a Newfoundlander?

A standard poodle. In that picture he hadn't had his first trim yet, so he's showing gloriously fluffy puppy hair
