My grandpa has made homespun hard tonneau covers for his pickups before, used plywood, rubber weatherseal, a long hinge, rails on the large rear portion for stiffness, and some sort of hood-pin-type fasteners for the tailgate end. I think he fastened the front corners and the rear pin fasteners into the corner bed holes. I thought about doing that with my pickup as well.
