Great work so far.
Are you going to do some light TUV type testing when you finish? (i.e. let the cat lay on it to see if it breaks?
) Can all registered uses please login, even just for a few minutes..
It helps build a picture where our "good traffic" is coming from..
Thanks :)

You may need some filler in the crack if you want it to be an invisible mend.
