    I think Ed is moving, that is why he closed up cage shop for right now. Or at least that is what i heard.

    He also was selling off a bunch of his used cages to cut down on stuff to move...or again, so i heard.

    And looks good with the perches. Phyllis doesnt use her shelf? I know Caesar loves his shelf and spends a good amount of time curled up on it.

    The set up is 90* corner brackets and tree stakes. Was going to use fence posts but the were a bit unwieldy for the amount of space in the cage with the shelf included. The center of both perches are 5” apart so she can climb between and over them at the same time if wanted. ~3.5” maybe between the closest points of the posts

    She played on them for a good 30 minutes at least. I emailed Ed at constrictors nw to ask about a cage but haven’t gotten a response. How quick is he to respond? Also emailed AP about a similar design. Basically want the height and width of your cage at 8’ long, also modular. Whoever quotes me the better deal gets this cage order haha. Kinda want AP just so everything matches but it depends on how close they can design/cut it to my specifications.
    Either way I may go with swinging doors instead of sliding. Curious to see if eliminating the air gap between the sliding doors for Phyllis changes where or how she pushes. Since the acrylic doors with fit flush inside a recessed cage front my theory is that she would at lest push elsewhere? I think she pushes on the right side of the car post currently is because she can get the best face wrecking leverage from that spot

    Remember, swing doors cant be done in glass so you would have to get lexan or acrylic. I originally had Pat's T5 set up as a single swing door but i called Ali and changed it to sliding glass. I really hate acrylic doors after my Proline cage. Rosey struck the door once and she must have gotten a tooth or something on it and it put a nice scratch line about 3 inches down the right side.

    Oh I know... just not sure if a modular cage in two 4’ sections would be easily done with sliding doors, unless it was two doors on both 4x’ halves. Ideally I want two four foot cages with a singe door on either side bolted together haha

    I hear ya. But remember, you are talking 4 feet on each side. When i talked to Ali about the T5 with a single swing door and how they keep the roof from sagging while using a single swing door, she told me Mark actually builds the perimeter of the door bigger. So instead of having the same size opening as the sliding glass doors, it will have a smaller opening as the borders need to be thicker.

    Also if you were wondering about replacing a scratched acrylic door, i talked to Ali about that too. She said, you can knock the pins out of the hinges and they send a new acrylic door with half the hinges bolted to the acrylic. So you just line both halves from the front frame to the door and push the pins back in.

    I bug Ali a lot about stuff lol. I also talked to her about bolting cages together and ideas there but thats another story. My phone bill is a expensive whenever i talk to Ali at AP hahaha.

    I don’t think I’d mind a smaller opening as long as that meant I would only have one post between the doors as opposed to the three post total that would result from bolting two T13s together ya know?

    Yeah. Hopefully they can do a single swing door on a 4 foot cage but you'll find out as well as all of us im guessing

    Hey. I had no idea about Ed. I got my cage over a year ago but waited to set up

    Don’t worry about plexiglass windows. They are great and mine look brand new. One cage is already 5 years old.

    Totally bummed she is pushing again.

    Ahh okay, thanks! He's been so absent from his forum and then when I saw the 'cage shop closed' a few weeks back I figured he was going to just focus on his breedings instead. Thanks for the info! Wish I had known about his selling off a bunch of used caging.
