Cage measurements.

Ok this is going to be my first attempt ever to try and build a cage. I've only built one thing in my life and it looked horrible.

Any way. Het for human i really like your design and i know the one you posted was for the smaller cage i was wondering if i could get your measurements for the 4x2x2 cage. Thanks ahead of time. Also i'm building a 4x2x2 stand with 2 - 4x2x2 cages on it. Will it be strong enough with 5/8 melimine to do this.

If anyone has any other tips please let me know.

Hey there

well, i got a tip for you: Dont try and make something like this



Well, i know im not gonna do it again
Im trying to say, that its better to make something simple. You will be finished alot faster then me (im workin on it for almost 10 months now, but i do have to say that im not the fastest builder in the world) and cheaper.
Except when you got the time and not in a hurry to buy a new herp, then you can make something like this

P.S i dont regret that i have ever started makin this enclosure, have lots of fun building it

P.P.S if you are wondering if that is lego on the shelves: yes, that is lego

Yeah i don't think i could do something quite like that. But that thing is super sweet.

Legos are cool. In mall of america they have what they call lego land. That place is the greatest brings you right back to childhood!!!

Here's my two cages. The one on the bottom was my first ever built. The one on the top was just finished up and put into service today. The bottom is made of 3/4" melamine and the top one is 5/8" The stand is just 2x4's and regular old 3/4" particle board. It will eventually have doors on the front and enclosed sides to provide a more decorative storage area on the bottom. If you have any questions on how i build them let me know. I have lots of pics of all of them. BTW they are 4x2x2 as well.
