Terrarium/I don't know what project.
Okay guys and gals, I still plan on building the nice big custom ball python cage I showed in another post. That project will be put on the back burner. Current project goals. I just picked up this 70 gallon tank (yes I know not ideal for ball pythons) what I would like to do is put a plexiglass glass devider in the center and construct some sort of back wall with foam and cover it in some type of water resistant material. Any ideas?

Oh I figure the foam on the back wall will provide excellent insulation and I plan on a plexiglass top

Re: Terrarium/I don't know what project.
Update... none of the home shops in town had glass in the right thickness so I had to order glass. Should be here by Monday. Also got the log cut in half. Yea that was fun. If you have never done this it is a pain in the arse. Anyway slow progress. I'll update soon.

Got the glass back today. The top was cut exactly, but the tank divider was a 1/4 inch too long. My fault must have been drinking when I measured.

Top is mocked up and just needs paint and a coat of poly to seal it. Divider glass is in and silicone is drying.

So do you think I can drill the back glass to put the temperature probe in?

I can't wait to see the finished project!  It looks good so far. What type of log did you use? How did you make it safe for your scalebaby?

If it's for the thermostat, I'd put the probe in direct contact with the heat tape/pad, outside the glass. This is an awesome build!!!
