Finally, after many hours and more dollars, here is the fruit of my labor. Not everything turned out like I wanted, but I am extremely pleased .
Me, sweaty and tired after finishing up:

Very well done. I am hoping to start build a setup for my RES this weekend, and I will be happy if it turns out half as nice as your setup.

Thanks everyone. I sure learned a lot doing this. The first thing is that if I ever do it again, I will have access to power tools! All I had was a drill and hand saw with a miter box. I did borrow a skill saw to cut the holes for ventillation.

I am a hack, you guys should be able to blow this away with proper tools.

I think you did a great job man! Not only that but those cages have to be what 4feet long? That's awesome I almost never see people put that much effort into colubrid setups...I think it's great!

Eastern King in the bottom. I couldn't get a good pic of him in there. However, here is a pic of him from a few weeks ago:

That is a great compliment coming from you, Guru. Thank you. Each level is 4 x 2 x 15 inches or so high.
