*smacks self* and i was sitting here wondering how many 'little' binder clips it would take - lol - GOD i wish we had something other than walmart here.
I used to work in an office, and there actually are these HUGE black binder clips, like 4" long, that could possibly work. Only problem with those, is that when stressed, they have a tendency to snap off- not good when you've got a anxious snake pushing against a lid.....
With the nut and bolt idea, all you'd need is a very very small screw so you wouldn't spend too much time twisting the nut on and off. Thats how we secure most of our larger boids in tubs at my work.
thanks- im probably going to stick with that nut/bolt idea with a short/fat screw. id probably just leave those on(locked) at night or when my boyfriend or myself arent present. otherwise, we're usually in the same room as crowley (and will be with any other herps we aquire) and would hear the top popping off.
thanks again guys.
