Converting a Dresser into a cage.

that is crazy bad ass!

Thanks het! Next we'll find an old entertainment center and convert it then put a red tail boa in it! I like making the cages more so than buying one already built and set up.

gotta love hobbies for the hobby :) anything you can build yourself is so much more rewarding then going out and buying it!

that setup is so nasty, I need to get started on my own custom one as well, my snake is getting a little large for his tank and I want something to properly display him.

Het: It's definately nice being able to build it like you want and it feels good to know we didn't spend thousands of dollars doing it. lol

DJ: I hope nasty is a good term. lol It's much cheaper doing it on your own. but it is definately time consuming. We've been working on it for a year or so and it's a pain sometimes but our problem is money not time. We had the backround and grout in within a week. and it was painted a week after.

Do you have pics posted of the finished Product. I am curious about the front.. Will you be using plexi-glass to make the front?

A lot of trial and error when doing a project like that. Hows the fixed position water bowl? I originally had one of those in a tank and it was a pain in the you know wat to clean. Wish I would have made a removable one.

That is an awesome looking set-up... :gj:
I do agree about the water bowl. You could use a utility knife to cut a ring around the top so the shape is still there in the foam to hold a water bowl and still be able to remove it for cleaning. Also, how difficult is it to clean poo and urates out of it?

I've been wondering about using the silk/fake plants from craft stores. Soooo much better of a selection. Just rinse well and add to the enclosure?
