I have an odd shaped shower room which I'm going to gut and renovate soon. The odd shape means I can't get a shower tray to fit but as I'm tanking the whole area anyway, are there any issues with with building a timber shower tray? I'm thinking 18mm marine ply generously sealed plus the tanking kit should be okay but what about the drain area? Any thoughts?
DIY custom shower tray?

after ripping up the old flooring ,you should put extra support noggins in the joists then treat/soak in wood preservative , lay your 18mm WBP,screwed down at 200centres then tank an tile
hope this helps
