My DIY top

great idea and diy! I would only worry about evaporation, but the lexan should help with that.

Yep that's the plan, the lexan will help make the whole top stronger overall also.

I doubled up the eggcrate under them for this reason, it doesn't sag like it did with just one layer.

If you don't have a dremel to smooth it out you can rub the crate on a brick wall, thats what I do.
