    Re: Sawing a PVC enclosure...

    I’d be careful if you do decide to take out the entire divider. Since its a fixed peice in there, the enclosure might have been designed to have that piece permanently in there as a support, and would’ve been built depending on it. It might develop a sag in it, and either way, I probably wouldn’t stack another cage on top.

    Ya I was thinking the same thing, for sure won’t be stacking it but I’ll make sure to determine whether or not it’s providing support before I cut it out. Last thing I want it a banana for an enclosure lol

    I would cut out a big upside down “U” like a tunnel. That way you keep the support in the front/back to the floor. If its 23” deep inside id leave aprox 3” front & 3” in back. That way a good size aprox 17/18” cutout allows heat flow throughout.
