I finished my blue tongue enclosure and thought I would put it on diy zone to show finished results.
I use plain old white melamine 1200x595x595 from Bunnings.
3D back ground I found at a local pet shop urs made of rubber[been sitting on their she]lf for years and got a discount it was not the right height so I used another sheet of melamine in the roof to make it fit plus this made my electrican's job easier to wire the lights.
For air vents I used a wall/eave vent with a 100mm hole easy to drill with a 100mm wholesaw bit
You can hook up flex ducting to a fan for fresh cooler air if it gets to hot[which I should not have to do but just in case]
finger grips I got from [not sure I can say cause of aps rules] but everyone will know who I got them from I used bearded dragons but they look great and easy to put on
over all about 4-8 hrs to build but the back ground failed to stick first time so I use 4 tubes of liquid nails with about a ton on weight on top and I left it for 3 days to set
