DIY Drip Tray

[kona]

I have an awkwardly shaped 7x4 grow area and normal trays will just not work out for my situation. I'm running coco DTW and was wondering if anyone had any input on me using something like the link below as a tray.

I would put the fittings near an edge and lift the other side slightly for best drainage. It will also not be a catastrophe if something screws up and a overflow occurs.

Not sure about that tray, it is pretty shallow. Some 2x4 and a corrugated sheet will do you wonders tho
Put some gutter and a fitting so you can run the drain to any place you'd like.

7x4 1/2ft tray i made awhile back works great

very interesting although im not sure a gutter system would work well for me
