Original Cabinet, just on 400 Litres:
New Cabinet, approx. 750 Litres:
Plans are to:
- Cut the rods/bars out & put glass behind the doors
- Seal the inside with water based urethane & install vents (and close off unwanted holes)
- Fit the heat panel (Pro Herp 80 Watt unit - had it for 5 months now and it was the BEST thing I've never bought, very happy)
- Put a basking shelf under the heat panel (using the support piece that is there already)
- Cut out a 30x40cm hole in the top shelf so he can sit above the heat panel also
- Install 2 x 60cm LED strip lighting on aluminium rod for safety (don't want them coming unstuck)
- Install 2 locks externally so no escapes.
- Gather together some branches and get decorating!
Will of course post progress photo's.
