    This is the dude's page that makes awesome styrofoam environments. If you use the same technique but instead do in onto a PVC pipe, that may work.

    Maybe someone else will give ya less laborious work to make branches!
    That doesn't sound too labor intensive. I come from a custom car background so nothing is too labor intensive as long as the end result is right.

    Thanks very much for that link. Doing it in pvc for strength and using the styrofoam for texture sounds like the perfect solution.

    Dude, you did that pretty quickly Albino's are niiiice. I think the multi-cage suggestion in your other thread sounds like a good idea.

    *not really quickly* that was about two weeks of work being lazy on the weekends and waiting for resin to cure. I think I'm going to keep the cage like it is for a while and in a few years, I've got a futon-shaped spot in my extra bedroom begging for an enclosure for a full-sized burmese enclosure. BUT after that, I have a perfect separation point in the mantle for an upper and lower enclosure.

    Do you own the house? I want an Albino Burm sooo bad, haha. My girlfriend and I held one at a show last year, and it was 150 pounds of amazing Thing weighed more then she did.

    That's the beauty of owning your own home.... and not having a wife and kids to ruin your cool ideas.

    That would make a great Carpet cage. A burm would outgrow that pretty quickly. Strong work for sure.
