Well done!

A good background adds so much to an enclosure.

 

[gaara]

Looking good. What are the dimensions?

 

[Greggus]

it's 1200mm long 700mm high and 600mm deep.And no,i think i'll leave the background as it is.

what is it made out of?

 

[Greggus]

It's 18 mm craftwood that's raw on one side and has a melemine coating on the other. it's good because you can paint the out side any colour you wan't and you don't have to worry about the inside.

I got the idea off this site.It's just expanda foam sprayed onto a backing board.For the ledge i just screwed a piece of craftwood to the backing board with a couple of brackets and sprayed the foam around it,let it dry for a few minutes so it's wasn't sticky and then moulded it to shape.
