    home build enclosure!!
    I have been reading up on a lot of threads...and it seams that a lot of snake owner or hobbies have issues with glass tanks, keeping everything regulated..im having that issue right now....and i know a lot keep in tubs or rack systems...but tubs are just not for me...i wana see him.....so i was thinking of making one for my bp...out of wood.. and Plexiglas, what do you think???...i would do something to keep the wood from getting wet and things like make it all sealed on the inside!!!

    any advise!!??

    I actually just finished building a display tank last week. It's been holding humidity and temps just fine since then...

    Animal plastics and RBI make cages out of expanded PVC foam board and I think they are a great alternative to glass tanks. They hold heat and humidity well, are easy to clean and I love mine.

    I have materials and plans to build quite a few enclosures of differing types and sizes. I like using 3/4" Roof/wall high grade plywood with plexiglass doors. :)
