Yea build a frame that will suppport it and then put a sheet of plywood on top. Then You can do one of 2 things. Find some plastic and screw it to the top. Or Cut the pvc in half and screw part of the pvc onto the side of the box. Then use cocking and with the edge that is on the top cock that to the plywood on top
