In building my 5' x 2' x 2' enclosure the plan was/is to attach slate backsplash to the back wall (It's a concept thing :roll: ). Only I'm kinda loath to permanently attach all this rock to the beautiful (Baltic) birch veneer. What if one day Mr. Dragon decides he wants to remodel, or what if he croaks and I want/need to re-purpose the enclosure? There's no way I know of to strip off that backsplash without ruining the birch enclosure back.
Solution: Attach it to a scrap hunk of drywall I found in the basement, and (less drastically) attach that to the back of the enclosure.
Slight problem. The piece of drywall--which is the perfect size for this--has been leaning against the wall for... oh... 30 years or so ±, and is more than slightly bowed (yet still quite hard/solid).
Any of you experts know how I can un-bow this thing, or is it a lost cause? I hate to go out & buy a whole dang sheet (not to mention I no longer have a truck to get it home in) just to throw most of it away when the perfect piece is like... 15' from where I'm sitting.
