    DIY acrylic display dimension help!!
    I am going to build a few display cases for when I vend at expos. My question for people that have ones from other companies is, what are the dimensions used for baby and juvenile ball pythons?

    The dimensions on mine are about 7 x 6 (minus 1/4" of plexi on each side). It fits hatchlings okay, but I also have removable dividers so I can expand that 2-3x for the bigger guys. It may be best for you to just build a prototype out of cardboard or something and see if it's big enough for the snakes that you want to sell.

    I think the divider idea is a good one, that way you have a one size fits all and can adjust for all shows.

    Look up Uarujoey on youtube for the ins and outs of working with acrylic. That is of course for parts which are permanently affixed. The video's can be long and dry but, he takes nothing for granted. There is no assumption the viewer has already worked with the material so, IMO it makes the perfect introduction as even the most basic steps are not skipped.
