Thanks! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Tonight I plan on setting it up and getting the temps right so I can move my adult BP into it. So excited!

That's great! I've been trying to find out how to do the same since we don'T have a lot of pvc cages available where I am. PVC seems to cost an arm and a leg thouh and almost seems harder to find.
Did you have the sheets pre cut or did it yourself ? And what kind of latex sealant, is it really necessary or just an added protection ?

Re: PVC build advice
Home depot couldn't cut the sheets for us. They said the dust it produces could cause issues with their ventilation system, so we cut it ourselves with a circular saw. Since the cuts weren't absolutely perfect I used dap latex sealant as a precautionary measure. I think it looks nicer anyway and helps to blend every thing together in the interior, but it probably wouldn't be necessary with good cuts and construction. Building your own pvc enclosure is definitely worth the money you save as opposed to ordering one, and you don't have to wait for shipping. I'll definitely be building more in the not so distant future!
