    4x2x2 lizard cage

    Over the past few months I have been searching for lizard cages that were front opening, but still allowed for a deep substrate layer amd found nothing, so I decided to build my own. The frame is made out of an aluminum extrusion and the panels are XPVC (will not be using XPVC again). The cage should be finished on Monday, but here are some pics of the build process. I had to enlist the help of a lathe and mill to trim down the flange on the vents and cut the extrusions to lenth.
