I used this wonderful thread to build my click clack yesterday, I put the photo frame (small) on top, I put fly wire and then the glass went back on, as I'm in perth, its too cold for it in winter, but in summer I will just lift the glass and let the air flow Cheers!!

well im trying the click clack setup now , with the temp probe do i have to make sure it touches the click clack ? or can it be above the paper towl level?

If your talking about your thermostat i find it best smack in the middle of one of the click clacks sides.

Hope this helps

The side being the one between the hot and cool end.

Dunno if this helps, but when i did my babies click clack, to help stop the dowel moving, I used the soldering iron to make a hole just a bit smaller than the dowel itself, and as soon as the plastic was melting i pushed the dowel through. Once the plastic dried it was moulded tight to the dowel. i made sure i smoothed any sharp bits, and for good measure i hot glue gunned the join aswell. but if u get the plastic to mould to the dowel good, its really strong. (hatchie wise anyway). Thanx for this thread cos it only cost me like $15 to do and my baby loves his new enclosure! Awesome idea Em!
