Okay, I need to know how long it should take to have a enclosure built.
It's 6ft high, 1.5ft deep and 3ft wide. It's made of wood. There are two shelves in it (to make 3 compartments) one of which slides out. Each side has 3 holes cut in the wood that are covered with mesh (for ventilation). The plexi-glass doors slide (you need to remove them completely to open the door all the way). It's all very well made, and sanded to it's smooth, and treated so water won't ruin it.

Please let me know how long this should take to make

depends on how good you are with wood working and what tools you have to build it with... the cage itself could be built in one afternoon if you know what your doing :) , but the staining etc always takes time to dry... it could all be done in one day, but not ready for your reptiles for at least 2 weeks.

I agree Jeff .. a day, maybe two to build (3 or four days if you just work at it in the evening) but at least two weeks for sealing (hopefully with a water based sealer ... oh, come on .. I have to preach sometime :D ) and curing time.
