    Nice little find for a cage table.
    I will be single caging it when it comes time to get my boa. I was looking all over to find a table just the right height for my purposes. I wanted something up off the floor and high enough to make for good display viewing. I looked at more expensive wood tables and some other card type folding tables. Then I found this. http://www.buylifetime.com/products/blt/pid-80160.aspx

    I like the fact that I get 34" of height out of it. I can stand up with less bending when I feed and clean. I know a lot of you with racks have a cage or 2 that is just the right height, but for me this will be perfect. This also adjusts to standard table height and another setting that's even lower. I hope it helps anybody who needs something similar.

    It's an affordable, commercial grade table and holds 800 pounds evenly distributed. My Proline should fit like a glove!

    Amazon prices out about $20 less but there is shipping charges.

    Damn I'm proud of myself LOL!

    That'll certainly do the trick. I would add a table cloth to create some hidden storage underneath and hide the steel legs.

    I like to use the mid-height TV stands. They give you the appearance of furniture (since it is) and usually has storage space with doors and a couple open shelves.

    The one I currently use for my 4' enclosures looks similar to this but has glass doors. Solid wood construction (not particle board) and very sturdy so I can stack. This one is 47 1/4" wide, 18" deep, and 2 ft tall:

    I really do like the furniture type stands. Makes the T8s and other "show cases" more appealing and feel more like furniture.

    I used 48" x 24" adjustable chrome wire shelving. It's expensive, but allows three shelves below the T8. I'll adjust it down when the T10 comes in, so probably only two bookshelves and two cages. http://m.uline.com/mt/www.uline.com/...t-48-x-24-x-54

    I went to a local wood shop for a table. They classified it as a sofa table. Three shelves. It was about $180 I believe. Nice and sturdy and just what I wanted. If you have the spare cash that is, LOL. But they did have less expensive tables. Used item stores are worth a look too.

    Re: Nice little find for a cage table.
    All great ideas, and really nice to see what others use. For me, I needed a light yet heavy duty and adjustable table. I actually only paid $13.00 for mine, but it is less at Amazon than the direct link to the manufacturer. They just had a better description and a little video. I fully plan on a black table cloth and have plastic storage bins that I can put under it.

    There are so many great ideas, and a lot of people who are maybe 1 or 2 snake households. If I had my way, I'd have a classy looking set of black cages all decked out and stacked on pedestals.

    But for now, I'm using my little, adjustable table.

    When I get everything set up I'll certainly post pictures. It will be a while still.

    I'm looking at going the same route but just wondering if there would be any issues with the flex watt resting on the wire shelving? Or do you put something underneath the cage??

    I don't use Flexwatt...only RHP, so no issues for me.
