I bought a Black & Gold Jungle python yesterday. I managed to get a reptileone display enclosure for $200 as well. I'm just after some ideas on how to set it up. Its all glass and vertical so will be a challenge to get temps right. I'm up in Queensland so I do have time to mess around with it.
I have a water bowl, a hide, newspaper for substrate and a 100w bunnings globe scred into a urs ceramic fitting hooked up to a reptapet on/off thermostat.

The fitting and light cage are tied to the mesh on top with twisty ties. I didn't have any cable ties in the house last night.

Im thinking get some of that scrub mesh privacy screen stuff from bunnings ( the stuff that people in apartments put on their balcony railings) and put it up on the back and sides.

For heating I'm thinking get a toddlers stool or something, put a tile on it and put it right under the globe? Or put some more branches underneath for a basking spot, even a bit of rope?

Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

Awesome , with heating I had heaps of trouble holding heat but I ended up having a 100w red heat globe and covered the top with 6 ply timber so that there's no gaps , that's the old heat source I have , but I have 3 wall rocks , some green fake plants abd substrate and of course a hide , my jungle abit over a year old .

All done but the little guy prefers to hide behind the bamboo.
