cage light mesh?

Hey,
Just wondering where all of use get your snake light mesh stuff from?
The only thing I can find is some massive roll which cost's $60 and i only need it for a couple of cages? All the other mesh is way to big and my snakes would easy be able to get in, so there isn't much point to it if I get the big stuff.
Thanks people.

most reptile supply shops have them already made. Can get square ones and round ones. I prefer the round ones as I have had one of my pythons hurt herself on the sharp corner of square ones. She has a fancy one now - one with the light fitting already in it

I would buy them, but it would cost me more in petrol to go get one from somewhere because i have no real reptile shops around me. Thats why i thought it would be easier to make it.

I make all of mine when I build the enclosures. I just undo 2 screws on each one to replace globes - works a treat

(and no, that isn't a downlight in the enclosure, it's just a reflection)
