It took me longer then I wanted to get it done, but it is done now and lookin sweeet if I do say so myself.. Thanks to everyone who helped out by answering my questions... Also to Wacko Nacko, thanks for giving me some modivation.


Cheers:gj:

Those are very nice!!! Is the entire front the door, dropping down to open?

Looks awesome! I've been anxiously awaiting pics of the final product, especially with how different your layout was (is). I must say it turned out great! Bet it feels good to have it finished though haha.

Yes the whole front drops down for easy access to the whole cage..

Ahhh it feels great to have it done.. Yea I'm not too big on the "normal" style of things lol... with the setup how it is we can have all our reptiles on that wall, except for our dragon he is in a 55gal.. I just have to put out spotted gecko on the very top on the unit.

Thank you for lookin. so glad its done and in place


Cheers

Sweet looking setup.

Look great. Only thing i would alter for the big BP on top is remove the cool side hide. Being as big as she is 2 hides arent needed in there at all.

Holy cow, that's sharp!! I'm impressed! I'd love to have a display like that someday!

Thats insanely demented :D BTW whats the weight of the bp on top?

I'm not sure which I like more, the set-up or that sweet battle axe... :gj:

thank you all..:D so glad its done. i know i keep sayin it but i am glad lol..

Djinn is about 6lbs last weigh-in.

LOL yea the battle ax is fun too hahahaha.


Cheers

thanks.... its not??? Djinn goes into both of them.. so the bigger the bp only one hide is needed?

OK, so now its really done.. I had to move Jaffy into a new tank. Which is now sitting atop the entire unit. Had to reset the timers as you can see it's still broad daylight out haha... Damn it feels good to be done with it... Now the question is what do I do when I add more??? LOL.

Oh ok got ya.. yea I know the feeling... There's a Expo comin up soon and all I want to do is buy more BP's and other things too lol...

Looks super awesome! :gj:
You've made me rethink the design I'm working on. I totally dig the modern modular look you've got going.
How did you attach the risers and the cages together? Or are they just attached to the wall?

Looks real nice. I'm moving to a new place in the next month or two hopefully, so i guess i'll have to build a new one for my snakes to fit the furniture lol

thank you.. I tried to screw them to the bottom, but the angle messed me up. and yes the cages are screwed to the wall. the risers are kinda floating there.

I actually started my build last night. So look for my step by step soon-ish. I'm using repurposed glass so it's so "fun" figuring dimensions.
Anyway I decided to attach my "risers" as legs to the base of my cages from the inside before I do my sealing and painting. Then all I have to do is set screws up though the roof of the cage below to attach them together...just a thought if you every decide to move you cages.

Once again just awesome. Seeing your cages gave me some great ideas.
