So I want to change people from using PVC cages into using HDPE cages. My main reason is because I see a problem that needs to be fixed. HDPE is a superior product and is just more expensive so I want to be able to provide to people for the same price as some of the main cage makers. Im aiming for AP cages.

Now I will do a DIY guide but I have to pay for a down payment for a house in California which if you know is not cheap. But by February Ill be able to make the guide. For now I want to point out some PROS and Cons of HDPE over PVC and wood

PROS (HDPE)
1. Heat tolerance of 248 degrees so virtually no chance of cage warping or being structurally compromised.
2. Its a dense material (HIgh Density Poly Ethylene) So its strong
3. The material is very easy to clean and will not soak up odors nor stain after long time of poop and pee on the enclosure.
CONS
1. Expensive material

So the main reasons why people switch from wooden cages to pvc is for the pros I listed for HDPE enclosures. Now HDPE is superior and does everything that PVC does but better. So now the only reason why people have not swtiched to HDPE cages is because its more expensive material so it has to sell for higher price. That is the problem im trying to solve the price. Actually I solved it, now I just want to see if people would buy it.
