WIP....................Dont want or need no stinking tubs

Plans have been over running my brain for the past couple months and I finally had the time AND the money to pull the trigger:D
Still have to make the door but the weather screwed me today:mad:
Fully water tight!! Venting is actually going to be built into the lexan door

Need the weather to dry out so I can stain and finish the outside.

BTW its 36Lx18Dx13H

Just need another weeks or so to air out and I have to install some limiters on the doors.
There are several things I am going to change on the next ones but these will work.

Very nice. I wish I had the talent to make a cage like yours....:gj:

:O Wow! All that for your BPs? I'm impressed, most people would just go the route of a rack system at that point.(from the looks of it you could have built a nice DIY rack too) I imagine it's cause you like to display them though, which is good. :gj:

Yeah, our friends like seeing them too.
Gonna get a juvi rack when we get our first clutch.
Really they were not that expensive to build but I wouldnt sell one for less than $175.00 just because there is a lot of time in the detail work.
If I planned it right I should be able to get 15 to 18 enclosures where we currently have 5 tanks:O All depends on how high I want them stacked.:confused:

::bow::bow::bow::bow: you ARE god i am jealous.... of your BPs wish i lived that lavishly:tears:

Thats funny because one of the guys I work with wants to come back as one of our dogs after he dies :O:O:O
They eat and live better than we do

lol that's awesome i love people that know how to treat their pets :gj:

Awesome job :gj: I wish I had the space in my garage and the tools to do something like that.

Go WalMart Dog Food bowls!!! hahaha I just picked up a whole grip of those for my racks. They are awesome, look good and their cheap. I cracked up when I saw it. AND it matches the color of stain/varnish you used!

That looks like you used linoleum for the inside of the cage with that rock-type pattern? If so.. great idea! If not, what the heck is it?

Really impressed guy. It looks super nice. Really custom.

I spent 9 hours hand laying all of those stones!!!!!!!!!!:O:O:O:O

NOT LOL It is the linoleum you speak of, buy it is the only one with paper backing that I can find. You dont want to use the foam backing stuff because it starts to break down over time and I wanted these to last a while:gj:

Mind if I ask what tool you used to cute the linoleum?

Lovely cage btw :)

A bunch of very sharp razor blades:cool:

Wow, those are some of the nicest handmade cages I've ever seen. Great Job!!!!

Nice job!!

It looks great, I like the cut lino that works well.

I really need to get around to photographing my new enclosure I just have no time.

nice job man, a lot nicer than my DIY cages lol

Good looking cage. I like the inside,I had a bunch of extra formica around the shop so I started lining my cages with that.

You really need to do a tutorial on these mate! They are straight up gorgeous I want one :P

Cheers!
