I saw a video on Youtube that showed how to make a sort of snake shelf out of a bookcase. We're going to make one (hopefully soon)!

The shelf we are making will be a 4 foot tall x 3 foot wide shelf. We're probably just going to buy a simple, cheap bookcase at a thrift store, but if we can't find one we'll have to make one. Each actual shelf will have a small board over the front with slits for the sliding glass doors (yay!). The sides of each snake enclosure will have covered holes (forgot the word, whoops) for ventilation, and the inside of the enclosures will each have a heat cable sandwiched between pieces of glass at one end.

Sound good? Does anything need to be fixed or changed?

I'm not the best at explaining things, obviously, but you can take a look at the video, as we're pretty much making the exact same thing as the bookcase in the video.
