DIY Enclosure out of an Entertainment stand help!

Okay ladies and gents, need some help advice.

I have this old black entertainment stand 46"x36"x19" it also has a small cabinet under it that lifts it about 16" off the ground which i will keep.

Instead of trashing it I began to see the possibility for a new, larger, enclosure for my young red tail boa female; just over 1 year old.:snake:

so... I drew up this ROUGH blue prints in about ten mins in ms paint. I was thinking cutting the side boards down from 36" to around 18"-24". then i could drop the top down onto the shortened sides and build a door from plexiglass and wood.

As you can see, I have a "floating floor" going on so that i can still run a uth under the PVC.

Then for the back, PVC w a wooden frame. I play hockey so old wooden broken sticks are in abundance and easy to cut haha

Now I know this compressed board with its vaneer top is basically useless so I was thinking about lining all of the inside with PVC but i am not familiar with purchasing sheets of it and do not know exactly to get what I need.


my end dimensions would be ~46"x18"-24"x19"

tell me what you guys think, and if you can shed some light on where I can get the PVC that would be great.... sooner i do this, faster its not just sitting in my apartment taking up space!!!
