The other enclosures I have are AP T12’s.. and AP T60.
Ive PVC glued the Boaphile together several times and the back comes apart again when my young Burm pushes so Ive used Ratchet Straps for the time being. AP enclosures are 1/2” PVC, Great for holding heat great for holding humidity and great for security. The Boaphile doesn’t even measure 1/8... what a shame for a high dollar enclosure. I called the owner thinking they were one piece construction and he informed me that all he does is glue them together. So the AP’s are 99% better in My opinion and the top PVC enclosure made to date.

Thanks CALM, good to see you around! It's getting chilly here in MA so you must be about done work for the season huh?

I figured the thickness would be a factor. That's definitely one knock I have on the Boaphile. I was actually fortunate enough to pick it up for free, so definitely can't complain. Some of the "knock-offs" I've seen at expos are 1/2" PVC too. I've actually considered grabbing one of those too. I can't for the life of me remember what they're called, but that been at the Manchester, NH expo the last few times I went. The construction is solid and the price is right in line with AP. I decided not to though cause I figure if I'm gonna spend the money I might as well go with AP based on reputation alone.

Also, do you know anything about the status of APs new facility and if/when lead times will be shorter?

Thanks again.
