    It may have been the whisper of a deal. Along with idle hands. 🤷

    Been considering options to support the door. Such as hinges, like glass shower hinges. Or a roller set up. Either hidden in the track or external supported from a rod above.
    I understand. Been there. I also thought of rollers in the track, but I couldn't think of a way to do it that wouldn't cost more than buying a thinner piece of glass. I say you're in danger of throwing good money after bad. Do yourself a favor and sell that glass to someone that can use it.

    Oh! and say you manage to engineer this thing together. It's gonna be a vault, a cage capable of holding a terrible monster. What are you going to put in there? One of the sweetest, gentlest creatures on God's good earth. It just doesn't make sense for a ball python.

    I'm not the handiest guy in the world. If you are, maybe you can figure a way to make it work. I wish you luck. If it was me, I'd sell the whole lot, buy some 1/2 inch pvc sheet and 1/8" glass, and build an enclosure with that.
