    I used it for the front of my enclosure. I actually thought of using it for the whole enclosure but I knew I would be placing things on top and 5/8 OSB was only $4 more per sheet. I wouldn't depend on it for structural strength. Also when screwing it to other wood be careful not to go all the way through it with the screw head. I used it for the sides of a tortoise house, I sandwiched a 2" thick piece of foam between the plywood sheets. The plywood was glued to the foam. Strong and light. I bad thing is you will have to use more dimensional lumber for strength and if you want to hang a light or something you would need a 2"x2" or larger to attach the light too.
