The top sections are one piece an the stand(the 2x4 construction) is another piece. All is getting skinned with cabinet grade plywood and painted(don't hate me for painting can grade wood) black, to match our other furniture in the living room.

I made the pieces separate so they can be moved easily. There will be provisions to attach them for safety and to keep then aligned.

ok cool. cant wait to see it finished. I love seeing what other people create! You were asking earlier about attachind an UTH to wood? It looks like you have wood working skills so this is what you do! ... on the bottom of the cage cut out a hole 1" smaller than a ceramic tile. ( I use a 16"x16" tile) I cut the hole to 15"x15" and then route the tile into the remaining 1/2" surrounding the hole so you have a 1/2" lip all the way around the hole to where the tile is flush with the INSIDE of the enclosure. Then silicone the tile onto that lip. When that dries cover the whole floor with laminate and you have a perfectly waterproof spot on the floor that you can attach a UTH to the outside and the ceramic transfers the heat perfectly to the inside with very little heat loss!. There you have it, from one custom cage builder to the next! Did you check out a pic of my set up?
