I’m still thinking of how I’m going to secure the background to the tat, and how I’m going to prevent Snaby from getting behind it. Ideas include bolting it into the PVC and shoving some foam along the top so it blocks the crack.
    My pegboard is secured with thumb bolts set in brass threaded inserts. To keep my snake from getting behind it, I use rubber window insulation strip. My snake got behind it anyway (see my post). It wasn't the insulation that failed. By trying to get a really tight fit, I, inadvertently, bowed the pegboard giving him a gap that he was able to exploit. Since I fixed that, I haven't had any trouble. Though, I reinforced the window insulation by laying some dowel rods on top of the bolts anyway.
