    New Cage in the making!
    Ok so im making a new cage for my ball pythons and want some opinions. LMK what you think. The white paint is Killz. I have used it on my saltwater tank canopys for years so I would say its ok for this. It has no smell when dry and seals water tight! The dimensions of the whole thing is 8'Lx24"Wx18"H
    There is 2 cages. one on each side.

    Here is the hole for the glass front.

    All sealed up on the inside!

    This is how the cage will look when its on its legs.

    Next step is to cut a hole in the bottom for the glass where the undertank heater to be mounted on. I dont think it would be a good idea to put it directly on the wood. Not to mention the not much heat will get through the
    1/2 inch plywood.

    Ill update when I get more done. Please let me know what you all think. Also any ideas to make this project better.

    Thank you. Its actually very easy to do. "with the right tools" The whole setup cost me about $80 to make so far.
