Noticed today the my table top plywood cover from Forest River on my propane tank was falling apart. Replaced with a 5 GAL lid from a 5 gal paint bucket, close to same and no wood that falls apart.

Yes, the plywood isn't the best choice. The cover itself isn't very good either. After less than a year, I noticed ours was falling apart. Some black silicone over the holes patched it up. I have the hard plastic cover from Camco, but I removed it for the trip to the factory. The old cover is on for now, but probably will come off when the R-Pod leaves along with the battery and propane tank.
