Hello, long time no see. I'll be able to move in with my brother soon and can finally save to build Oliver my monitor a new cage for when we move 'cause I have a job now (wooo we're being somewhat of an adult!!).

I was just wondering if there were blueprints or cage designs I could find that I may be able to use as a template for a build? I just want to keep this simple and kinda would like to be walked through it I guess? I need this cage to be fricken perfect, relatively transportable (as much as a peice of furniture). The big thing would be making sure the cage can be fit through a standard doorway so it can be moved in and out when necessary so I don't need to build a new cage everytime I move.

I'll doodle some of my ideas and post them here for everyone to look at when I get home from work (I'll write it down on my hand so I actually remember!).

Tegu Topia has a pretty detailed cage design Build The Perfect Indoor Tegu Enclosure (http://www.reptilesmagazine.com/Lizard-Care/Build-Tegu-Enclosure/)

Thanks for the link, mine is going to need to be rather tall though. I'm thinking 5t,6L,3w

I use sketchp to design my enclosures in 3D and use the dimensions i'll use in real.

Here are some examples.

This one was for somebody else :

This was for my burmese python (but turned out different, lol) :

And this is how my room almost looks like :

If you can link them to me that'd be great, any examples and ideas would be great. I am changing the height from 5ft tall down to 4ft because the plywood I'm buying is only in
4 x 8ft sheets.
