Hi guys, thinking about making a DIY enclosure soon for my snake. Was wondering how much everyone elses costed to make? Just so that I get a general idea of how much I need to save. Pics would also be appreciated
Im up aroung $1000 on my build, but that for SIX 6x2x2 and TWO 3x4x2 16mm melamine enclosures, glass tracks, vents and a heap of new tools to do the job. You can get 2400x1200 16mm melamine sheets from Bunnings for $34
The labour is the same using good materials as opposed the cheapest materials so it may be better to use better melomine than that from Bunnings.
[MENTION=39804]critterguy[/MENTION] can you give me some basic directions or point me in the right direction of some threads that show how to make the lid with these materials? I did a search but no dice as far as I can see. Thanks!You can usually get a 3-4ft tank for under $100, then about $25 for the wood, nails, silicone, flyscreen and staples for the lid, more if you don't have a staple gun.
