Custom Cage : What wood?

I would like to build Custom Cages for ALL my Repiles as I am re-doing my bedroom with new paint, etc. I wanna make rectangular custom cages with the doors opening upwards but I have a problem... I would like to use a nice wood, not melamine but I have heard that Cedar was bad for reptiles and that was my second choice gone But my first was pine and I was just wondering if it could harm my reptiles in any way? I live with my parents and they dont like melamine so its definatley out of the question and I dont like it either. If all goes well I will be selling these cages as well. My third choice is probably melamine but I dont like the fact that if It gets wet alot it starts falling apart and thats why I wanted cedar because for a 3/4 of an inch piece of wood would take 20 yrs to rot. Im also going to make an enclosed box just for soil and heat it up with a ceramic heater to dis-infect it, would this be hot enough because I dont really wanna put dirt in the oven :P
