I just let it set overnight. It wasnt sticky at all.

I meant when you were spraying it. When I was using it to fill in gaps between the sheets of tin it was sticky as everything i touched stuck to the gloves, what brand were you using ? Selleys ?

Cant remember the brand but it is the cheapest one bunnings stocks. I didnt touch it at all while it was drying. Just covered the entire back then made some big blobs as well. Waited 24 hrs and then carved it out with a very sharp bread knife.

Hey Boxhead thanks for the positive feedback. I tried to make it look as natural as I could while still making it manageable. Feel free to copy away cause this is just a conglomeration of ideas I have seen in other enclosures. If you need any more info or details on how it was done shoot me a PM and i will help out where I can. I think the substrate was Oz pet or something. Made from wood with no added chemicals. I saw others on here using it so i went to the local Pet Cafe and searched their kitty litter and found it.
Cheers

just a quick question, If i was to get that thermostat and run a uth in a cavity in one of the ledges 24-7 and a light during the day... would that be suitable? total noob btw, haven't even got the snake yet lol, just trying to plan everything out

Sorry I am not sure what you are asking. What is a uth? What is the enclosure size? Where would you be placing the probe?
Dont want to give you the wrong info

Under tank heater I think its called, sorry if thats wrong. It'll be about 1000w x 1000h x 750d and its just thinking of the best way to heat it. Btw I live in nqld so I'm not sure if I even need to.

looks tops mate. well done and thanks for sharing with us
cool snake also

 

[damo77]

I cant see why this thermo wouldnt work for you as well. In my build i have 3 heat sources. There is a heat mat and a ceramic heater that runs off the thermo and also a light that runs off the timer to create a day night cycle. I had to play around with the wattage of the light to get the right temps during day but now i have it sorted. At night the heat mat provides a constant warm spot on the floor and the ceramic globe provides a constant warm spot up high. As for if you actually need heating where you are I cant answer. That would depend on snake species and your enclosure temps without heating.

What would complete this enclosure and match its impressiveness is installing our Liasis Stainless Steel handle to the door frame - Virides - Stylish Enclosure Enhancements (while it is currently out of stock our manufacturer should have some ready by Monday).
