Thanks! I don't think I could start a business, the enclosure isn't holding humidity as well as I had hoped. I hope that changes since spring is pretty much here...

The big pieces of wood are birch, they are like 3/4 of an inch thick I believe. The smaller pieces are just some cheap wood. There is no sealant on the wood, I opted to use plexiglass for a barrier. There is epoxy sealing the gaps in between these.

I'll work on it... it will be kind of difficult to do since I wasn't taking pictures during the building process.. I think I could get some diagrams up to try to show the steps.

I was planning on making a DIY but I don't think my dad would have been patient enough for me to be taking pictures all day.

Definitely need a DIY
Thanks, it was more expensive than I thought it would be ($50 for a sheet), but it allows for the flexwatt to heat through the floor and it keeps a water-tight seal.
The whole project cost about $200 for wood, screws, plexiglass, flexwatt, chains and what not.
BTW this was a birthday present that my dad and I built, I don't want to take all the credit for building and designing it.
