I just saw your post. Due to the size and my design i have about $200-300 in the building materials and lighting. With everything to include the heat panel, herpstat II and other stuff. I have around $600 or so in the whole project. I don't know if that would be considered expensive or not but it is muti-use, looks good in the room, and has made maintaining my bp easier.

Very nice......AND helpful!!!
Thanks for sharing! I was looking at the expensive track systems that were going to cost more than the enclosure! I never thought about looking in the metal section!!
Leave it to a good ole Georgia boy!!!
Thanks again!!!

Very cool, man!

I realized today while cleaning that my bp has been in her new home for 4 months now. I am away for 48 hours and every once in a while for 72 hours at a time for work so i find the waste after it has a chance to sit and saturate. I use aspen bedding to help since it soaks anything up and is easy tobspot clean. The melamine is so easy to clean and everything comes off with little effort. There is no staining as well. Here are some floor pics while cleaning and one after.

6 months now and my first upgrade/fix. I had some LED light wiring attached to the ceiling but my pb has played in them so i got some cable hider from lowes and installed it on the ceiling in the troubled area. let see how this works.
I had snake supervision duing the installation.

Thanks

It turned out to be not that hard to build. Size was the only issue since i had to movebit around myself. All together it is heavy but in sections it is not.

That is awesome!! I think I might have to steal you ideas. A black version of that would look great in my living room! [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

I used the valspar primer paint to paint this. I wanted to do some more coats to it but i was not able to. I ran my mouse sander with a fine grit over the melamine before painting.

Thanks for the advice! You did a excellent job! Hope mine turns out just as good!
