My new snake came in last week and holy mama he was a lot bigger than I anticipated. I had to scramble to put an enclosure together but luckily had a heavy duty plastic foot locker the right size that I was able to repurpose. Size-wise it's working great but because the bottom and sides have some corrogation it isn't transfering enough heat from the heat mats, and the lexan plastic I put over the windows I cut isn't safe for a che so I'm really struggling to bring it up to temperature.

My plan is to cut out either a section or the entire bottom (keeping the feet so it stays raised) and replace it with something flat that will transfer heat better. But I'm not sure what material would be best to use. Please lend me your DIY wisdom! And if anyone has any suggestions about places that might be able to ship something to me since I can't leave the house that would be an extra appreciated bonus!
