Thanks I really hope so I plan on making it look pretty good and it like a real live place where they live

I saw two exactly the same enclosures at Salvos Beenleigh $80 & $100,heavy,but heaps of potential.Good freebie

 

[BurtonReptiles]

yeah mine got wheels on it so make so much easier to move around, but it will be heavy once it is finshed.

So I gutted the shelves today and was going to cut the side walls out but it got little late and I think I woke the baby next door in our unit block lol

Be careful,babies and old people can shut down your DIY!

They make pretty good beardie cages. I am currently rebuilding one of these at the moment. It was originally done in foam and render but now its getting a full overhaul to all our new methods. I can put up a pic for you if you want some ideas.

that bottom cupboard would be ideal for a sand pit lol, cut a hole on either side of the cupboard and have a plastic tub in there with sand for laying females/cooling periods etc have a perspex sheet slipped in but leave the cupboard doors on so it can stay shut and you can open it to see whats happening... just a thought

i like the way you think this does sound like good idea i was planing on making a cave/tunnel that went to the back of it where there be a clear sliding window where they could lay or rest. i have images in my head of what i want it be built like but still working on how i will do it. proberly be in foam and render but any other ideas anyone?
