I bought a couple of the plastic hides that Shane Scarf is selling a couple of months ago at a Herp meeting, and peterjohnson64 commented that he'd like to have the hide on the roof of the enclosure/aviary for his diamonds. The hide has a rim or lip around it so using some plastic for it to slide into would be the easiest way.
I kept this in mind and on the weekend saw some 3mm plastic moulding in Bunnings, so I bought a length, cut it into strips and Bradnailed it to the ceiling in my Water Python enclosures. The hide just slides in.
The hide in it's usual position on the ground. Note the lip.

Strips nailed into place
In position
In use.
Just thought I'd post this in case any one else wanted to do similar.
