New cage for Hots.

Here is a new custom Acrylic cage that I made for a client to house a Western Diamondback. It has a removable divider to make cleaning safer for him. When the divider is not being used, the handle side of the divider is used to fill in the 1/4" gap on the top of the cage. It has a pin lock on the sliding doors. It also has a second locking system of two 1/4"Acrylic rods that lay in the bottom track so even if the pin lock is not in place the doors will not open. To open the doors you will have to remove one or both of the 1/4"Acrylic rods. I think this will come in handy when cleaning. The one door can be locked in place when the divider is being used. It measures 36" long X 16" high X 30" deep with two 4" vents on each side. The vents are 1/8" holes drilled in a circle pattern. Let me know what you think of this cage - good or bad.

Cage looks great. I have never messed with acrylic, but it looks like you did a nice job.

A hot is a venomous snake.
That is one wicked cage you have there.
How do you form the acrylic together? you just melt the corners together I'm assuming.
Could you pm me the methods you use to building these awsome cages?
If not I totally understand.
Great looking cage though, divider was an awsome Idea.
I bet we'll be seeing alot more of those in the future.

peace
