Abstract: The invention involves a cabana shed having a folding bar surface. The cabana shed is constructed from lightweight blow molded panels that can be shipped in a knocked down state and assembled on site with minimal tools and strength. The cabana shed includes four walls, a floor, and a roof, all secured together into a robust structure capable of withstanding winds, rain, snow loads, and the like, while maintaining a dry interior. An upward lifting panel is provided in a front wall of the structure. The upward lifting panel provides shade for the bar surface while in a lifted position, and allows patrons to sit at the bar even in the rain. The panel is closable when the bar is in a folded state to allow the shed to be completely enclosed.

Abstract: An additive system for use in a polymeric formulation (plastic) that includes a plurality of visually differentiable elongated streaks contained in a mono-colored base, the visually differentiable elongated streaks are composed of a pigmented material having a random pattern and elongated due to the manufacturing process. The visually differentiable streaks are composed of at least two colors, each having a pigment shade visually differing from one another. The visually differentiable streaks are elongated and randomized during the manufacturing process to resemble the elongated markings present in natural materials such as marble or wood. The visually differentiable markings can be utilized in various color combinations to make lightweight useful articles having a pleasing aesthetic appearance.
Abstract: A deck box includes individual panels and a lid that are able to be assembled to one another without the need for external hardware. A bottom panel is connected to a pair of side panels. The side panels are provided with guides or rails that extend toward the bottom panel. Front and rear panels are provided with guides or rails so that each of the front and rear panel can assemble to and between the side panels, sliding into engagement in a direction toward the bottom panel. A lid has an integrally-molded hinge member that engages with an integrally-molded hinge member of the rear panel.
