This is my first build and I had some questions because I am a noob
I was thinking of building a 6'x4.5'x3' enclosure in 4 parts..the base..the top..and the "body" of the enclosure is split into halves so I can move it into my basement and assemble it there when its finished.
So my questions are:
1. Would 2x2s be strong enough for the frame or should I use 2x4s?
2. Is 3/4" plywood good for the walls?
3. Is glass better than mesh for the window?
4. What sort of lighting do I need?
- I know I need a basking light but I am not really sure what else
5. Where do I need to place the different lights?
That is all I can think of for now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
