This guide is very easy to follow along as most other channels would rather show off than actually show how to get it done. Thank you for making this guide.

There are a number of spray-on coatings for bedliners that should be effective to weatherproof the OSB . Nice job on the construction .

@@tarosworkshopHi Taro, I’m a Canadian English teacher living in southern Shikoku. I can do carpentry and enjoy building things very much. My school closed in 2019 and I couldn’t find work for about 2 years in Japan. No companies would hire me, even to do construction or carpentry work because they said my Japanese speaking was not good enough. But, they never even checked my Japanese skill. I’m not fluent, but it is not so necessary as a carpenter I think. Anyway, in Canada, no company would ever tell you your English is not good enough. If you can do carpentry work, they will hire you. They do not discriminate against foreigners like in Japan. By the way, I have a 1988 Toyota Hilux I imported from Japan. Maybe I will build a bed cover like yours. For now I’m using an old-style Yutaka truck sheet from Japan. Probably you know it. You have great skill!

@@ShikokuFoodForest Hello. I see that you are having a lot of trouble in Japan 😓. As someone who can only speak Japanese, I think it's great that you are able to go and work in a country with a different language. I hope my video will help you to make a cover for your Hilux. In fact, my elementary school daughter is also learning English conversation from a Canadian who came to Japan! I know working in Japan is hard, but I support you!
Great video! Excellent design, too! I would make one change. At the piano hinge, I would substitute tamper-proof screws (with no slots) instead of Philips-head screws, to make it even more tamper-proof. Your skills are top notch!

Thank you very much! This is the first time I've heard of tamper proof screws. I would like to use them in my future DIY projects. Thank you✨

I’m Canadian living in Japan, but never heard of tamper-proof screws. I’m wondering how you could install them if they have no slots in any shape. Perhaps rivets would be most difficult to remove. One constant problem and risk in N. America and other countries is chance of theft. This is practically non-existent in Japan. No Japanese would ever even consider dismantling a truck cover to steal anything! It would never happen in Japan even without tamper-proof screws. Only outside of Japan is theft rampant. If it’s not locked down, it’s gone pretty fast. I live in Japan and don’t bother locking my house or my bicycle. No problem here.

My apologies. A more accurate description would be "tamper-resistant" screws. They are designed to be screwed in with a flathead screwdriver only. The screw is designed to be inward - ONLY!. Once screwed in, it cannot be removed by normal means. There is nothing for the screwdriver to catch onto. Hope that helps!

@@lwsrider Thanks for the update! Interesting. Something like you describe would be the way to go if you really want to deter theft.
Muchas gracias por compartir, quizás solo me parece que es mejor dividir el total de las laminas en 3 o 4 partes porque hay ciertas cargas que ocupa todo el espacio volumétrico

@@tarosworkshop Thank you for your response. For most everything I can understand what you did. You protected the edges with a rubber material, I like that. But you know that the practical board top will not last. So paint it over with a good oil paint. I can see you used a sealer for the top. Don't you think a oil based exterior paint would last longer? For the attachment I was thinking of using a slide bolt and Gorilla tape to help seal the hinge. I have a 5'-6" bed with a toolbox and wanted to hinge at the toolbox then finish the cover as simply as you did. Thank you my friend you gave me a few ideas...Peace.
